21st Century Skills + Professional Development topics = Integrated Learning
We are constantly working on matching our classroom experience to the reality which students face in the world. We understand that many of our students wish to improve their English to secure their professional future in this century’s global employment market.
Emerald has recognised the need to integrate a range of professional topics and 21st Century Skills (‘soft skills’). We now offer our students a unique opportunity to increase their employability.
Key Professional 21st Century Skills include:
- Critical Thinking
- Creativity
- Leadership
- Problem Solving
- Collaboration
- Time Management
Using these essential skills as a foundation, Emerald’s expert in-house academic team have developed a series of Integrated Learning Workshops. These career workshops will be an essential part of B1 to C1 level Intensive English courses here at Emerald.
Professional Development Workshop Topics include:
- Presentations
- Chairing a Meeting
- Alternatives to Powerpoint
- Goal-setting
- Networking
- Intercultural Skills
All Intensive English courses (level B1 – C1) at Emerald Cultural Institute include these Integrated Learning Workshops. Students will be challenged with developing their soft skills while continuing to improve their competency in English. Using modern communicative teaching methods our teachers will deliver Professional Development Workshops which utilise the 21st Century Skills.
