Business Language Courses
De Taaldienst is specialised in providing business language courses. These are intended to improve business communication with clients, suppliers and colleagues, at any level. The courses not only focus on learning a new language and/or improving language skills, but also on cultural aspects that are important in doing business.
Location
Business language courses are standard provided online or in-company (if the participants all come from the same company). If you are with a group and you prefer to follow the course at a different location than the company, that can also be arranged. Please indicate this on the registration form.
