Frequently asked questions about In-Company English training

What time of the day can the training take place?

That depends on your preference. Many companies like weekly training in the late afternoon or evening.

What is a typical in-company training schedule?

Some companies prefer weekly sessions spread over several weeks; others choose short, intensive masterclasses. We design the plan around your needs.

What formats are available?

We offer in-house or online group courses – intensive or weekly – plus workshops, private training (1:1), duo training (2:1) and HITs (high intensive training modules).

Can the course take place at our office in Amsterdam?

Yes, we provide in-house business English courses at corporate locations.

Can we get corporate training at The English Center's location?

We provide small-group, private, or duo training at our locations in Amsterdam, Amstelveen, The Hague, and Hoofddorp.

Is this corporate course available both in-person and online? Hybrid?

Yes. You can choose fully in-person, online or hybrid delivery—whatever best fits your team’s schedule and location.

What happens in a typical in-company English course?

Each course is unique, but all courses are very active. Course participants can expect to speak a lot and get feedback. They will discuss, role play, and practice. Everything will be in English (English immersion).

What skills will the team develop?

That depends on your company's goals, but your team can expect to gain confidence in meetings & negotiations, improve pronunciation & grammar, expand vocabulary, write better emails & reports, give stronger presentations, and communicate more diplomatically.
