and Countries Increasingly over the past fifteen years ILH has been winning large contracts to train government and company personnel. Such courses are mainly, though not exclusively, to give training in English, and take place principally in the UK, Ireland, the USA, Canada and Malta. Students Students may include trainees, employees, managers, government officials and armed forces officers of varying age and seniority, including the most senior echelons. Aim and Content The main objective is to make rapid progress in the language, with special emphasis on improving oral ability. Although this is always for work purposes, the courses do not normally involve specialized terminology or (in the case of English) English for special purposes (i.e. not our Executive Plus programme). The Executive Plus programme could be provided on such contracts, but the standard programme is generally found to be sufficient and offers a very cost effective option. The formal lessons contain a mix of oral work, orally practised grammar, reading & discussion, vocabulary extension, listening comprehension, pronunciation and role play. Hours, Duration and Dates Students may choose 15, 20, 25 or 30 hours’ individual class per week. The minimum course duration is 1 week. The lessons normally run from Monday to Friday. Note: a 1 hour lesson is a full 60 minutes. Courses are available at any time of year. Please contact us directly for further information and a tailor-made quote. |
