Do your employees attend meetings in English but struggle to express themselves clearly and professionally? This interactive webinar is designed to help non-native English speakers build confidence and improve their communication skills in meetings.

Led by expert Business English trainers from Language Services Direct, the session introduces essential language tools and strategies for effective participation in English-speaking meetings.

 

Programme Overview

This webinar offers a practical preview of our Business English for Professionals course. Participants will walk away with useful techniques they can apply immediately – and organisations will see how structured language training can boost team performance and confidence.
