We have experience working with universities, ministries, non-governmental organisations, state owned and private companies. Explore our range of services below to see why the NCML is the best choice for your organisation’s language needs.
Our range of services include:
Language training needs analysis
At the NCML we are able to design and administer needs analysis exercises upon request. These exercises allow organisations to assess the language level of their staff in speaking, writing and listening. The results of these exercises can then be used by your organisation to plan staff training programmes.
Guidance on language testing and assessment
We support organisations in testing language in their organisation. Our services range from selecting potential employees in recruitment exercises to identifying staff for future training and particular projects.
We provide ready-made testing solutions or can develop tests to meet an organisation’s specific needs. The NCML can also provide tests for organisations to administer or fully manage all aspects of the testing process.
Course and training programme design
We design language courses and programmes to meet organisations’ needs, business objectives, capacity and budgets. Products can range from short intensive or part-time courses to long term language teaching programmes. We can advise clients on suitable training programmes for their needs and resources, and on options for delivery, including employing their own language trainers or outsourcing to external providers.
Programme management
We are able to support your programme management needs by providing a range of support services to training centres and other educational organisations on planning and running language training programmes of all sizes.
Guidance on selection and procurement of language teaching resources
We are able to help organisations make informed choices regarding purchasing language teaching and learning resources including books, computer software, audiovisual materials and online learning programmes.
We can facilitate the purchase of products from abroad, help organisations make direct contact with suppliers and provide advice on obtaining materials from abroad.
