Business Studies Course - The Office

Welcome to the Business Studies Course. This course is designed for people who need to use English in their work. In this unit we look at English you need for the Office. The lessons are for students who are at the intermediate or upper-intermediate level of English. Students who do not have this level of English should do a foundation course of Elementary or Intermediate English before doing the Business Studies Course.
Each unit has three areas of study -
1.     -   pre-teaches the Vocabulary you will find in parts II & III.
II.     -   is a report or discussion dealing with a situation you might find during a business day. You may need to answer questions, or decide on the best thing to say.
III.     -   is a document follows from the material you have seen in part II. Again you may have to interpret the material and answer questions.
