Training Options

TYPICAL COURSES

1. One-to-One General or Business Arabic Course Salford
A 'must' for work colleagues, excutives, managers or professionals for whom language is an essential tool for success. Tailor-made to suit the exact needs of each corporate/company client. We take great care in the research and design of all course materials, designing each course around your work schedule. These are personal and completely flexible programmes with one or two trainers, depending on how intensive the course is.

2. Small Closed Group General or Business Arabic Course Salford
Cost effective courses. The emphasis is on essential communication skills in a variety of professional situations. Maximum value is gained from exchanging ideas, comparing problems and learning with work colleagues with the same language needs and objectives.

3. One-to-One or Small Group Cultural Awareness Courses (Language & Behaviour) in Salford
Suitable for clients who will be living and working abroad or who make regular business visits abroad. Ideal for human resources, upper management, embassy and company staff who need to move in international social and business circles. Our courses have a learner centred approach which focuses upon etiquette and appropriacy.

Both One-to-One and Small Closed Groups can be trained on an Intensive Full-Time Basis (from 4 to 12 lessons per day, from 1 to 6 days per week) or an Intensive Part-Time Basis (from 2 to 4 lessons per day, from 1 to 3 days per week). All courses are designed to take into account the aptitude and availability of the trainees and how quickly the trainees need to acquire language skills. Specific language is taught to match the trainees' business and social needs.

SPECIAL COURSES

4. One-to-One Telephone Arabic Course Salford
Ideal for company clients who regularly travel and can be reached by telephone. These private courses are ideal for those who are regularly based in remote locations and can only spare 30 minutes per day to study. At prearranged times, from 1 to 7 days per week. We are currently offering Telephone Courses in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.

5. One-to-One or Small Group Last Minute Arabic Course Salford
Designed with the busy executive / professional in mind. Often clients must travel abroad on company business at short notice. This is a one/two day intensive course, often on weekends, to refresh their language skills before they meet with clients or alternatively to give them the basics of a new language.

6. Luxury Weekend Conversation Arabic Course Salford
The perfect gift or treat. A weekend (Saturday and Sunday or just one day) out and about in the city of your choice (or your home town). Clients visit places of interest, e.g. museums and art galleries, and have lunch or dinner in elegant restaurants where they have to order their food in the target language. All accommodation, meals and transport are arranged as a package.

7. Residential Homestay Arabic Course Salford
An excellent immersion into the local culture for those who need to make rapid progress in a language. Clients are placed in the home of a qualified, native speaker teacher who will treat you as part of the family throughout your stay with all meals provided. Special requests for location, interests and private bathrooms can be accommodated if sufficient notice is given. Please note that these courses are subject to trainer and location availability.

8. Examination Arabic Course Salford
For clients who need a qualification in their target language to enhance their CV or for professional purposes. Cactus can provide examination courses. However, information on exam boards, syllabus and application procedure must be researched by the client.

How it Works - 3 Stages

Step 1 - At Cactus, we tailor all our courses (one-to-one or group) according to the needs of our clients based on our Needs Analysis ( which can be done online, over the telephone or face-to-face). This includes questions on personal goals, time available, current and desired proficiency in different skills and situations, and if any specialist terminology is required. The details of the course content can be changed at any time either before or during the course, as a result of evaluation of the client's progress and/or changing needs. This often involves the company Training Manager or an individual's Line Manager and also gives the Academic Team the opportunity to learn about the company's business, helping them to tailor the content of the course.

Step 2 - A language assessment is conducted for all participants except Beginners. This involves (i) a written test to assess passive knowledge of grammar and vocabulary and (ii) a speaking test to establish fluency and degree of confidence in actively using the language.

Step 3 - Language Training begins in-company or in seminar rooms provided by Cactus, in groups or one-to-one. Regular testing takes place and Language Training is reviewed by the Company Training Manager or Line Manager and the Cactus Teacher & Academic Team. Lesson reports are continuously updated online, with a continuous record of attendance.
