Target audience and objectives

Developing intercultural training skills is a five-day train the trainer course, which has been held regularly at LTS in Bath and at locations abroad since January 2005. It is designed for experienced trainers from fields such as language training, communication skills training and management training, who wish to learn more about the theory and practice of intercultural training, both to integrate intercultural topics into their current training and also to deliver their own intercultural training courses. By the end of the course, participants will:

  •    be able to define how cultural values influence attitude and behaviour

  •    be aware of how culture forms an integral part of international communication

  •    be able to incorporate intercultural elements into their own areas of training

  •    be familiar with the main types of intercultural training

  •    be able to design different types of intercultural training courses

  •    be familiar with training techniques, activities and materials for intercultural training

  •    know how to use different tools to evaluate the success of intercultural training

All participants who complete the course successfully will receive the LTS Certificate in Intercultural training
