Accredited teaching Business English course for practising teachers
Business English is English as used in business. The definition is prosaic, but its impact is complex.
Business English is the study and practice of composition with emphasis on correctness, propriety, spelling, punctuation, and the forms of business communication. As the word communication is what language is all about, Business English courses reduce the language scope to areas of English that emphasise commercial over cultural importance. Business English courses are frequently designed to produce conversational fluency using a limited vocabulary. Knowing what your students need to learn and how to adjust and deliver material within the learning scope are the skills all good Business English teachers have. This CertPT BE course teaches you those vital Business English teaching skills.

Trinity CertPT teaching Business English course
- This course fills theoretical and practical gaps in knowledge for teachers working with teenagers and adults learning Business English.
- You can use the skills you learn in a single language and multilingual classroom.
- The course addresses the challenges of international business environments, therefore concentrates on the Communicative Approach (CLT) as the primary teaching method.
- EBC has designed the CertPT BE to adapt to teachers with little or no experience of Business English teaching up to those who have a deeper understanding.
- We also address why Business English students differ from General English students owing to their need for strengthening their knowledge and practical approaches for improving internal and customer-facing communication.
Teaching Business English involves teaching English to adults working in businesses of one kind or another or preparing to work in the field of business. The companies could be large multinationals, small private companies or even state-run concerns about providing products or services. Courses may be long or short. Classes may be taught in-company, in a language school, on rented premises or online.
Business English has much in common with General English but in many ways is different since the aims of a Business English course may be radically different from those of a General English course.
The aims of Business English teaching, whether broad or narrow, will always relate to students’ work. Sometimes this will mean teaching generalised business skills such as giving presentations, and sometimes it will mean something much more technical or academic.
The main thing to remember when considering what Business English is, relates to expectations. Not so much your expectations, but those of your students or their sponsors. Course organisers will have requested Business English because they want a course related to occupational or professional language needs. Investigating, analysing and fulfilling Business English students’ needs are critical to the success of any Business English course. Therefore, a great deal of attention should be paid to the language needs research process. You can only plan, design and give a good Business English course if you truly know your target audience. Without a good understanding of what your students need, how can you develop a Business English course that is tailored to their needs and requirements?
The purpose of this CertPT course in business English helps you find, tailor, adapt and develop material that will engage your students and therefore improve their learning experience and your teaching experience.
