The following course has been tailored for “Amundi Ireland Limited”
Welcome to Languages Unlimited, your online / in-house language training provider.
We are now taking bookings for upcoming 15-hour (10 weeks) online language courses in French for a Complete Beginners’ course, a follow-up A1.2/A2.1 Preliminary Level course, a follow-up B1.2 Intermediate Level course (Business French) and a new Advanced C1/C2 Business French course.
All courses will start on the week of the 1st October 2024.
Note that:
– If you need clarifications about the levels, please contact us at info@languagesunlimited.ie or consult the CEFR level chart.
– If you are not sure about your level, contact us to organise a free telephone assessment.
– The Intermediate and Advanced Level courses will focus on French for business (see course descriptions) and individual needs analyses will be carried out prior to the course for us to design the most appropriate course content.
You can book a group course (3 to 8 trainees) for €200.00.
Amundi offers its staff a full refund of the cost of these courses once completed, provided that you have an attendance of at least 50%. All you have to do is to provide the invoice you will automatically receive when your language course has been booked and paid for.
After this 15-hour module, you will have the opportunity to renew it at a later stage this year so that you can continue your studies.
Finally, thank you for connecting your camera when you have a lesson as it is very difficult for trainers to teach a language to “invisible” students. We really appreciate your efforts on this.
Enjoy your language course with us!
