BUSINESS SPANISH MODULES
- Descripción
These modules have been devised for students who already have some knowledge of Spanish and who would like to improve their level to be able to live and work in Spain.
The modules are focused on four main aspects: orienting students in their job search in Spain, providing in-depth teaching on understanding cultural differences, improving presentations and business meetings in Spanish and, lastly, developing negotiating skills. Designed for small groups –with a minimum of 6 and maximum of 10 students per group–each module can be taken separately, providing greater flexibility and offering lower fees if students initially sign up to take all four modules.
