Stafford House
School of English has
launched a pioneering new initiative entitled ‘Study & Work’.
The programme is based on the combination of a four weeks English language
course, followed with the experience of practicing the acquired language
skills in a work environment within the UK and Ireland. The whole experience
promises to be successful amongst an increasing number of students wishing
to prepare for gaining employment on a worldwide level.
After the initial period at Stafford House School of English in Canterbury,
students are placed in a business which is related to their area of studies,
or focus on improving their English in the hotel and catering industry.
While the internships are unpaid and students can choose to work as
volunteers in many different areas, such as Marketing, Engineering, Travel
and Tourism, Legal, Medical, International Trade, etc., the hotel training
is paid work and especially recommended to students who are in need to
support themselves during their stay in the UK.
The aim of the 'Study & Work' programmes is to improve existing language
skills in a professional environment, to increase awareness of international
business culture and to enhance employment opportunities worldwide. |
