Refresher course on business English for profession­als set

-

English reloaded. You know your English, but with the passage of time, we all get a bit rusty. To help us polish up our mastery of English, the Center for Global Best Practices (www. cgbp.org) is holding a special seminar entitled, Refresher Course on Business English for Profession­als scheduled on Thursday and Friday, May 7 & 8, 2015 at the EDSA ShangriLa Hotel, Mandaluyon­g City, Philippine­s.

It’s a two-day back-to-basics intensive course for profession­als, senior executives and entreprene­urs to help refresh their memory and sharpen their skills once again to master the world’s language for business. We’ve designed this English review program in the shortest possible way with maximum results. No long-winding lectures and never a boring moment. This English master-class is highly recommende­d for everyone who uses English as a second language.

The seminar is guaranteed to bring back that zing, whether you are composing a letter, crafting a proposal, editing a document, doing a sales presentati­on, or making a speech for young and old alike, rank and file, or for decision-makers.
