Communication is key to your business running smoothly and efficiently. Successful companies need workers equipped with the right English, to relate well to customers and colleagues, and to function safely at work.
And with staff operating more confidently, you’ll increase workplace performance and see better business results.
We work directly with employers and businesses to customise training that targets the specific needs of your workforce.
We can deliver our training programmes at your site, or a suitable location.
Improve communication with other workers and with customers
Ensure employees understand instructions and safety requirements
Reduce mistakes costing time and money
Increase confidence, productivity and profitability
ELPNZ designs training specifically tailored to your employees’ language needs. We work with your business to determine the training focus.
Many employers say the key issues are communication with other colleagues and customers. Some staff need to build basic workplace literacy and numeracy – to understand instructions and comply with safety regulations.
For others, it’s a need for staff to learn more about Kiwi workplace culture, so they understand more about ‘how we do things’ at work in NZ.
Your employee can integrate with our current classes, or we may be able to provide them with a private trainer.
Our trainers are all qualified and experienced, with expertise in delivering tailored workplace programmes to culturally diverse workforces. We frequently work with a mix of language levels and backgrounds.
This depends on your needs and availabilities. Contact us to discuss!
Your business comes first. Classes are delivered with minimum interruption to work hours, depending on staff availability. We will help you to determine the best approach – lessons as part of a paid work day, or after-hours, or both? We accommodate to fit all needs.
A part-time programme for workers (part or full time) who want to improve their workplace language, literacy and numeracy. Courses are up to 45-hours. A limited number of free places are available each year. The course is restricted to residents and citizens. Class times and content is flexible.
