Make a new term’s resolution to build on your language skills for your career
Whether you are lucky enough to have been abroad this summer - or even if you have been at home in our multilingual capital - you’ll know that speaking other languages makes a real difference. And remember that your language skills can be a great asset for career opportunities too.
If you are bilingual with knowledge of English and another
language, did you know that London
Development Agency funded courses run by providers
such as Making Training Work can help you to develop your
customer service or interpreting skills? Courses
start in September.
You could make a commitment to learn a new language or brush
up your existing knowledge - by enrolling on a course, learning
online or through language training with colleagues. Find out how
and where or go to RLN London's free-to-use Service Finder to
find language trainers, jobs, professional training opportunities
and lots more.
Whatever
you choose to do, why not make your mark by joining the
thousands of people across the continent who will be celebrating
multilingualism on 26 September, the European
Day of Languages? You’ll find ideas for events
and activities via our website.
