What is a corporate course?
  • This service is for individuals or groups who cannot make our Regular Public Courses but who require English for their professional development.

  • Our courses can lead towards an internationally recognised exam.

  • Training times and frequency can be flexible according to your needs.

  • Corporate courses can take place at the British Council teaching centre or in your offices.
How can you monitor the progress of your employees?
  • Before training, your employees complete a 30-60 minute placement test, which is used in all of our Teaching Centres around the world. It provides our clients with the information they need to monitor their staff’s progress and ensures the training is at the appropriate level.

  • During the training programme students are evaluated through continuous assessment, including written homework, by their teacher.

  • We can send you detailed reports at agreed intervals (usually after every 30 hours of tuition), which summarise the attendance and progress of the students.
