Internationally acclaimed training in English for Business
View(s):English for Business Communication, with international benchmarks from City and Guilds, International, UK, is one of the key courses on offer at the Rainbow Institute of Communication and English.
The institute set up recently, at No 44/1, Haig Road, Bambalapitya, is led by a group of Sri Lankans with strong professional and academic credentials. The team is committed to empower children, youth and adults with communication skills in English, through programmes carrying globally recognized benchmarks.
This is a timely initiative mooted by national university academics, corporate trainers and senior teachers who have set up the Rainbow Institute of Communication and English (www.rainbow.lk), affiliated to City and Guilds, International, UK.
The institute is headed by Manique Mendis, a leading Communication specialist, with more than twenty five years of senior management experience in local and international organizations. Sandra Fernando, a literary personality with long experience in teaching in International schools in Sri Lanka and overseas, is providing leadership for quality assurance benchmarking and academic development. The well known academic, Dr Mahim Mendis, a British Chevening Scholar with postgraduate research degrees from UK, USA and Singapore is the chief educational adviser of the institute.
“The Rainbow Institute of Communication and English is filling a vacuum for high quality teaching at an affordable price, in a context where private sector education has become a highly commercialized commodity”, stated Dr Mahim Mendis.
He elaborated that a large number Sri Lankans are greatly constrained in maximizing their potential both locally and internationally, due to lack of skills and confidence in English.
Business English courses at three levels
The Business English Courses are offered at three levels, starting from very basic and going on to the advanced level. These courses are ideal for managers, businessmen, executives, professionals, members of the armed forces and shop and office workers who wish to upgrade their skills in English.
The English for Business Communication courses focus on equipping learners to effectively use business tools such as reports, e mails, memos, faxes, letters, proceedings of meetings, presentations etc and communicate confidently in various business situations. Learners are equipped to use these tools, whilst developing their skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking in English, so that they can maximize their potential in the organization.
