The materials used are designed to practise the English language in a variety of contexts, including describing products and markets, conducting meetings and negotiations. Classroom exercises, including case studies and role-plays, allow students the opportunity to develop their confidence in an international business English context.

Course Content English for Academic Purposes: You will develop all the skills needed to use English in an appropriate way in preparation for university or college. You will improve in all areas — reading, writing, speaking and listening — to ensure you are prepared for life in your chosen university or college. Important skills such as creating and giving formal presentations, writing essays, summarizing, critiquing academic texts and far more, will be yours. English for Aviation Purposes: It is a prerequisite that all flight crew members and air traffic controllers responsible for international flights effectively demonstrate their competence in the English Language. This is a legal requirement imposed by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). Both pilots and air traffic controllers are required to sit a test which demonstrates ‘Operational Level 4. This test is based solely on listening and speaking skills. Oxford Business College’s English for Aviation purposes offers students the opportunity to train in and practice both their listening and speaking skills. Oxford Business College can administer the ELPAC test on site. English for Engineering Purposes: Oxford Business College’s English for Engineering purposes provides students with the English language proficiency to describe some of the various processes involved in Engineering, how to follow precise instructions, whether positive or negative. The course also aids students with the tools for discussing and defending their projects and those decisions made in determining the directions of these engineering projects. English for Legal Purposes: Students will have the opportunity to learn key law terminology referring to legal proceedings, court systems and perjury; practise reading authentic case studies and contracts. English is the language of the common law that has often been perceived as the root of many of the law-specific difficulties for Legal English learners. In addition to the difficulties inherent in working with cases, common law contracts are clearly a potential source of difficulty for the Legal English learner. English for Medical Purposes: This course is for doctors, medical students in the clinical phase of their studies and other medical professionals who need to use English in their work. It covers medical terminology, practice in specialist vocabulary and a review of grammatical structures. In addition, Oxford Business College’s Medical English Course also extends to language to describe health and safety requirements. Apply Now: t: +44 (0)1865 791 908

Summer School with Oxford Business College With over 30 years of expertise the OBC team can design, deliver and host a variety of summer schools from English language programmes to visiting educational tours for graduates, trainees and employees. We can provide a package based on the needs and budget of any organisation whether in the UK or visiting from overseas. As part of our Summer School we can also organise subjects which teach either English language or business or indeed combine the two. Examples of our recent work have included an MBA Business School from India who send students to Oxford for accommodation, business tours to such places as BMW and a day of lectures from our tutors. Additionally we have worked with an Italian Social Enterprise Academy for students aged 16+ preparing a two week course in Oxford combining English language and business modules along with accommodation and a busy social programme. From Malaysia we have welcomed several groups of visiting business executives for 5 days of Oxford and London tours supported by lectures on UK business. We have also hosted English language Summer Schools where the students and teachers have stayed with us but we have complemented their visit by arranging accommodation, transfers, visits, social activities and administrative support. These are just a few examples of the work we have done over the years.
