Workshops for Trainers Working with International Clients: Language Skills

Rarely held Propell ™ workshops have been scheduled for May 10 and 11, 2011, on the Educational Testing Service (ETS) campus in Princeton, NJ. These workshops offer an opportunity for a quick gain of expertise in what may be a new area for some corporate trainers, but which is increasingly valuable in today's global market place--how to build and assess the English language skills specifically needed in business/workplace environments.

These one-day workshops examine the use of the TOEIC Listening & Reading and TOEIC Speaking & Writing tests, the world's leading assessment of real world English skills for business and the workplace, taken by over 6 million individuals each year and used by over 10,000 employers and other institutions. You will gain skills in preparing individuals for these tests, administering them, and improving language learning for real world business environments with new instructional tools and strategies. 

Enrollment will be limited to fifteen trainers, consultants, and English language professionals in order to allow sharing of ideas and interactive work with ETS expert trainers. Attendees return to their centers with an in-depth workshop manual; TOEIC score descriptors for easily assessing skills at different levels; activity books, practice test books, and audio CDs for use with trainees; and certificates of workshop completion as well as new ideas to develop  practical English skills.
