Tailored language training

You can choose between an individual course or a small group course in combination with other colleages subject to similar levels and objectives.
Professionele trainers with medical language experience
Thanks to our experience in the medical sector, we have a professional trainers network that can meet your needs. Our trainers are well-educated (near) native speakers and are familiar with the jargon required in many medical areas. If your specialist area is new to us then we work with current information to incorporate it in the programme. The programme and materials are selected to meet your specific needs and level, for example Dutch for Nursing staff, English for Medical Specialists or Academic writing.
What do we expect from you?
Your learning goals, wishes and daily situations are central to the programme. To deliver this we need active input from you and also regular feedback in terms of your experience with the course. Every programme is accompanied by homework assignments to maximise the return on investment.
What does a course cost?
A 30 hour course at the LUMC for one person costs around €2500 on average. Our services are btw-exempt (sales tax)
