Intercultural trainer training

 

LTS training and consulting is one of Europe’s leading companies in the field of intercultural trainer training. Since 2005 we have run the highly successful course called Developing Intercultural Training Skills. This is a five-day course for experienced trainers from fields such as language, communication skills and management training, who want to develop skills to design and deliver intercultural training courses, or to integrate intercultural topics into their current training courses. The course runs five or six times a year at our training centre in Bath, with group sizes ranging from 6-14. On successful completion of the course, participants are awarded the LTS Certificate in Intercultural Training.

 

We can also run a similar or tailored version of this course on an in-house basis worldwide. Recent in-house courses have been run for trainers at Air France in Paris and at Audi Akademie in Germany, for facilitators from the SkyTeam airline alliance from France, the US, Italy and Mexico, for trainers at KEY AB in Sweden and for teachers at The British Council in Rome.

 

In April 2010 we will run a three-day version of the course in Winterthur, Switzerland, in conjunction with van den Bergh Thiagi associates GmbH. For more details, click here.

 

We also run a three-day follow-up course (with an optional two-day workshop extension), called Designing and Delivering Intercultural Training, which has been requested by many of the 200 participants who have followed our first course.

Business English trainer training

 

LTS was one of the first companies to organise in-service trainer training courses for trainers of business and professional English. Since 1980 we have run numerous courses for business English trainers at our centre in Bath and in many parts of the world. Courses range in length from two days to two weeks, and cover topics such as needs analysis, course planning, testing and evaluation, teaching communication skills, intercultural communication, using authentic materials and developing materials.

 

At our training centre in Bath we run an eight or nine day (50 hrs) course four times a year, called Teaching English for International Business. The course has been validated by English UK and Trinity College London for the new Certificate in International Business English Training (Cert IBET). Participants who meet the minimum Cert IBET criteria can be candidates for the certificate. For more information, contact us at LTS.
