Professional e-mail communication in English
Successful and professional business correspondence!
E-mail communication is convenient but it isn’t always straightforward. For instance, it can be difficult understanding exactly what someone wants from us or what they are trying to tell us. You may sometimes wonder why some people don’t respond to your e-mail. And there are times when we find it hard to get the wording right and put our message across, particularly if the topic is complex.
If this sounds familiar to you, then our online training is there to help you communicate more efficiently. Not only will you improve the quality of the English in your e-mails, but you will also learn what you need to know when communicating with people in different cultural regions.
