Training preparation for expats
Going to live and work abroad? Or are you already residing in another country and want to make the integration of you and your family members easier? Our expat training is the ideal solution to prepare yourself and your partner or family for this new challenge. It provides you with knowledge about the new culture and teaches you skills to successfully integrate.
Why choose our one-day expat training
European Language Centre offers a one-day cultural training for expats (7 hours), which you can follow individually or together with your partner and any other family members. It is also possible to spread this cultural training over two days of 4 hours each. The training can be followed online, at your office, or on-site in Spa. The focus lies, according to your preferences, on one or more of the following topics:
- Understanding the country – we look at the unique characteristics of the culture that can influence daily life.
- The new environment – we introduce you to the norms and values, family life, the education system, the language, and the religion(s) of the country you are moving to.
- Communication – we cover the social conventions, behavioural rules, and communication differences you may encounter.
- Preparation – we prepare you for life as an expat. This includes living conditions, finding a social group, daily life, and family life.
- Tips and tricks – we help you with tips on how to build a network, find important addresses, and other useful local information.
Who is our one-day expat training suitable for?
The training is highly suitable for new expats and their families. Additionally, experienced expats can also benefit from refresher training. Expats who are about to return to their own country can use the (online) training to prepare and avoid reverse culture shock. The training can also be interesting for companies, organisations, and HR professionals who deal with employees living in another country.
