Teaching methods
This course aims at giving students the necessary tools to communicate effectively in English in a wide variety of work situations.
Contact lessons will strongly focus on oral communication. At the beginning of the course, students identify their needs, set goals and think of concrete ways to achieve them.
Both oral and written language skills are evaluated during the course, and details about evaluation can be found in the Moodle course. The Moodle course will open a minimum of two weeks before the first contact day.
There are two intensive study days, on Friday 22.3.2024 and Friday 26.4.2024.
Students should be present to at least half of the contact lessons in order to complete the course. Students who miss one day will be given the possibility to compensate in different ways, depending on which day they miss.
Alternative implementation methods
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
Have you acquired knowledge and competences that correspond to the learning outcomes and the level of your course before starting your studies? Recognition of prior learning (RPL) means recognizing and accrediting these competences.
Always discuss with your study counselor first. After that, contact the course teacher to agree on ways of documenting and demonstrating your skills.
You can apply for RPL at any point, but latest 1 month before the beginning of the course, so that if your application is not accepted, you can still participate in the course.
