1.What is important when choosing a business language course? Cost, Size of course, qualification

To begin with, like in many other things in the business world, cost is the primary consideration.  It is often said that you always pay for what you get, but you don’t always get what you pay for.  While excessive costs can be a big minus, extremely low prices may not necessarily be a good thing either.  We really have to decide what our budget is and then look at the price-quality ratio. 

Well, the size of the course is another thing we should take into account.  Normally the smaller a course is, the more hands-on opportunities you will get.  This is especially important in a business course because there are certain skills and knowledge, or what we call flair, that come only from hands-on experience.

2.What is important when choosing a management training course to attend? Program contents, Length of course

Well, one of the first things to consider is the contents of the training program.  Only by understanding the objective, focus and target audience of the program can we be sure that the program is the right one for us.  Otherwise, we will just be wasting our time and efforts.

Apart from that, the length of the course should not be neglected either.  The longer a course is, the more knowledge and skills you can learn from it.  But you should also consider the impact a long training course has on your working and family life.  The golden mean will be to strike a balance between the two.
