English language development courses for 2025/2026
The English language courses we offer for administrative (and academic) staff range in those with the main objective of improving participants’ overall English language competence and courses which target specific areas related to participants’ professional needs.
Similar to the closed-group courses we offer for academic staff, we also deliver specific-to-needs English language courses for administrative staff. Should you require a closed-group course to meet your administrative staff’s objectives, please complete this questionnaire.
Participants in our English for Work and Life (EWAL) programmes will develop their English language skills for use in a variety of real-life contexts, and acquire effective strategies to extend their learning beyond the course. Joining our Effective English Communication in a University Workplace course will allow for specific-to-your-professional-needs development in English language. The opportunity to be in a multi-cultural environment allows for a rich learning experience.

- Language and Methodology Development | Teacher Refresher
We offer courses for academic staff who wish to refresh and/or develop their teaching and lecturing skills in English. While the focus of these courses is on English language instruction, very often this input can be applied for enhancing teaching skills in other modern foreign languages.
We also offer specific-to-needs of institutions courses. We carefully establish from diagnostic profiling the needs of your academic staff and design and deliver courses to target those identified requirements. Should you require a closed-group course to meet your academic staff objectives, please complete this questionnaire.
The Language Centre also offers:
Blended Intensive Programmes for University Students
These courses combine a short online learning component and a longer period of face-to-face learning. Students can choose from our range of English for Work and Life and Academic English programmes and we then deliver an online component to meet their English language learning objectives.
