Technical Skills

The Amideast training center in Beirut offers courses and workshops designed to develop “hard skills” ― those technical skills that are job-related and involve expertise necessary for an individual to successfully do the job. As employers frequently seek individuals certified in these skills, training in them often leads to career advancement.

OUR APPROACH

Amideast courses and workshops are taught by experienced trainers who provide opportunities for hands-on practice and application of skills to real-life situations ― the kind of training that leads to success on certification exams. You will benefit from industry-specific examples through presentations, exercises, and class discussions.

Amideast’s method is highly interactive, emphasizing group communication and participation. Our instruction also combines English language skills with professional training in order to help you develop the multilingual competency required in an international workplace.
