Training forms
Everyone has their own learning style. Moreover, each learning objective requires an appropriate approach. That is why we explore which form of training best suits your wishes with you. The training forms below are suitable for both individual students and groups. We create groups based on language level, job background and learning objectives.
Blended Learning
Are you looking for a business language course that combines in-person and online learning? Then our Blended Learning programme is perfect for you!
This training format consists of:
- Weekly sessions with a trainer
- An online course for independent practise on our unique platform
Each week, you’ll have a scheduled session with a trainer, providing structure and continuity. In addition, you can work with online materials at your own pace and whenever suits you. Your trainer will guide you throughout, tracking your progress whilst also ensuring the lessons align perfectly with your learning needs.
Our interactive platform provides instant feedback and presents the course material in a variety of formats including images, texts, and audio clips.
After completing the course, you’ll gain access to an additional post-course programme with extra learning materials for three months, helping you reinforce what you’ve learned. During this phase, a language trainer will monitor your activity and periodically check in to encourage continued engagement. Upon enrolment, you will receive a personal message from the trainer, who will also respond to your posts and contributions on the platform. Furthermore, you can join a conversation session twice a month, where you’ll discuss a different central topic with a trainer and fellow participants.

Social Learning
If you want to maximise the learning impact of your English or Dutch as a second language course, choose a programme that integrates our Social Learning Platform. This platform is designed to stimulate and guide social interaction throughout the learning process. Various learning methods are combined on this online platform to create an engaging and effective learning experience.
A Social Learning course consists of three components:
- E-learning at your own pace
- Lessons with a trainer
- Social learning: learning from fellow learners and from a mentor
An important part of this training is social learning: learning through interaction with others, such as colleagues, fellow students or a mentor. This is partly done in your own working environment. In this way you put new skills directly into practice. You then share practical assignments and experiences on the online platform. You receive feedback here from fellow course participants and experts, and give your feedback to them on their cases.
The combination of learning forms makes the learning process more effective and places more emphasis on the skills you use in practice. In this way, you will develop yourself into a successful discussion partner in an international working environment.
After completing the course, you’ll gain access to a mandatory 3 month postcourse programme with extra learning material, helping you to reinforce what you learned.

Entirely face-to-face
A face-to-face training course consists entirely of sessions with a trainer. You do not use e-learning on our online learning platform. On average, a face-to-face training course consists of 30 training hours spread over 15 two-hour lessons.
Face-to-face training is also tailor-made, both in terms of content, and of scheduling and location. We plan the sessions with you with the location, day and time of your preference. In-company at your office, at our location or in the virtual classroom.
