Berlitz International Assignment Programs — For relocating employees

Berlitz International Assignment seminars provide vital cross-cultural insights about the host country’s culture, business ethics, etiquette, and educational system, so assignees and their families will be comfortable and productive in their new surroundings. Berlitz Repatriation seminars maximize your company's investment by ensuring that international management skills gained overseas are leveraged and effectively re-incorporated into the home office.

With global expertise spanning every culture, Berlitz Cultural Consulting® offers specialized training designed to support a successful, seamless transition for international assignees and their families. These programs prepare employees and their families for living and working in a new country, minimizing culture shock, adjusting to a new work culture and developing communication skills necessary to be effective in the global work place.

Effective, relevant programs encourage hands-on learning, and the Berlitz Mobility Navigator, which provides up to the minute analysis and insight around a wide range of global business and cultural topics designed to improve your global competitive advantage, is used to show participants how their cultural preferences impact cross-cultural interactions.

Also included is the Cultural Orientations Indicator® (COI) a validated assessment tool based upon extensive international and trans-cultural training experiences, as well as anthropological research. The COI provides a personal cultural profile for each participant and statistics can be provided on an individual or aggregate basis.

Programs are available for the employee, their spouse/partner and children.
