    and the range of skills necessary to perform in business will provide students with a competitive edge when entering
    the job market. This course will focus on language as a tool for communication in business rather than general
    language knowledge. It will enable students from a range of backgrounds to develop both spoken and written skills in
    a general business environment through task-based activities using authentic materials and company case studies.
