Successful global business depends on successful communication.

 

There is no doubt that English has been adopted and integrated as the main lingua franca for international business. Formal academic education provides academic knowledge and qualifications, but it does not always equip one with skills to communicate effectively and accurately in a professional world dominated by English.

​

The number of speakers of English as an additional language globally increases year on year, as does the level of general language proficiency. It is, therefore, necessary for companies to ensure that their staff are able to communicate effectively in English.
