Our Arabic language courses (online or in our School – private or group lessons) have various entry levels with the ultimate aim of acquiring the Diploma B2. The Diploma B2 offers the student an official Language Certificate recognised by public and private entities.

The diploma A1 corresponds to beginners, A2 to the elementary level, B1 corresponds to the intermediate level, B2 to upper intermediate, C1 corresponds to Effective Operational Proficiency or advanced and C2 to Mastery or proficiency.

Customised business courses for companies, entrepreneurs, travel agencies, hotel business executives or public bodys wishing to train executives or associates in the Arabic language.

The program includes courses on:

  • Commercial and business correspondence and specific terminology.
  • Tourism.
  • Basic banking transactions, etc.
  • Translation.

The regular or online programme is based on a teaching method especially designed for students of the Arabic language for business purposes and lasts 120-140 teaching hours. The vocabulary consists of 1200 words.

How long does it take to complete the three courses?

At this point, it is important to clarify that the programmes are flexible and depend on the curriculum or educational plan the student will choose. If eg the student chooses a rolling plan, without stopping during the summer, then the completion time of the programmes changes.
