Nokia is the world’s largest mobile telecommunications company, with more than 110,000 employees in 120 countries. Nokia approached Yaxley Education to provide English and business skills training to its talented research and development team in Beijing. Following meetings with design and management teams, Yaxley Education developed a training programme to fit the company's needs.

Sample of Training Sessions for Nokia

1. Presentation Techniques
2. English Vocabulary for Mobile Phone Design
3. Telephone Skills

The Results

Yaxley Education delivered this programme over three months. By the completion of the course, students felt far more comfortable when communicating in English with foreign management staff. Results from Yaxley Education's pre-course, mid-course and post-course assessments showed a significant improvement in the designers' English proficiency.

Nokia’s overwhelming satisfaction with this course resulted in the design of a new training programme, for twice as many participants.
