Erasmus+ Stage 3: – English for Career Development
Future Learning’s Adult Course is divided into three stages according to English language level. At each stage the exit criteria are those specified in the relevant Integrated Skills Exam (ISE) for ILEP purposes by Trinity College London.
Learner Profile
Erasmus+ students who join this course have an B2 (upper-intermediate) level of English and are working towards achieving C1. The learning activities are designed to develop participants’ communication skills through English and enable them to function effectively and participate fully at higher levels in a professional English speaking environment.
