FAQs
How do business language courses adapt to different business sectors?
At Ziggurat, we design fully customized language courses for companies, adapting the content to each sector. From marketing, finance, and technology to logistics and customer service, our language classes for companies include vocabulary and real-life situations from the professional world. On the first day of class, the teachers agree with the students on the content to be taught during the course, taking into account their level, objectives, and needs. This roadmap, what we call a Study Plan, helps keep the topics to be covered in mind. Thanks to our language training for companies, teams develop practical and effective language skills for their sector, ensuring fluid and effective communication in any professional setting.
