Language training on-the-job
Expanded range of job-related language courses for companies and educational institutions
Healthcare, logistics, IT - the acute shortage of skilled workers in Germany is creating a high demand for job-specific language courses. LinguaTV GmbH has once again expanded its already comprehensive offer and provides a flexible and needs-based training solution with industry-specific learning content for employees and students.
"We receive new requests every day from companies that want to prepare their employees linguistically for a very specific job," reports Philip Gienandt, Managing Director of LinguaTV. German for nursing staff, automotive mechatronics and logistics specialists, or English for IT specialists and advertisers, insurance clerks and hotel employees - each occupational group has its own very specific requirements. At the same time, employees often have very different previous knowledge of the respective language and also work in different places or at different times. Modern language training should therefore meet all these criteria and still be affordable. How can this be achieved?
The Berlin-based e-learning provider LinguaTV GmbH has developed a convincing solution: The subject-specific courses are part of a modular system. According to the modular principle, a needs-based training course is put together from various modules. The offer includes both instructor-led lessons (e.g. in a virtual classroom) and multimedia self-learning courses with video lessons and interactive learning games. These modules can be booked either individually or in combination and are optimally linked through a blended learning concept. More and more frequently, personal learning support for self-directed learners by experienced coaches is booked as a third module.
The advantage of LinguaTV's modular system is that it can be adapted to the respective needs in an extremely flexible and cost-effective way. The already extensive repertoire of multimedia self-learning courses for different languages and levels covers thematically not only basic language and grammar skills, but also offers business language (Business English, German at work, etc.) as well as a variety of industry- and subject-specific or technical courses. This offer is constantly being expanded, for example with the newly published courses "Business Communication" or "German for Food Production". If required, further company-specific learning content can be added quickly and easily, e.g. in the form of a subject-specific vocabulary trainer or lessons designed according to individual needs in the virtual classroom.
Conclusion:
With its modular offer, LinguaTV provides effective language training that can be quickly and flexibly adapted to the different requirements of the respective professional group. An effective and successful solution for companies and educational institutions, as many years of practice have shown.
