Professional Development Programme

At BIC we provide Professional Development Workshops, at no extra charge, throughout your time of study at BIC in addition to our main accredited programmes. During these sessions students are able to improve their English language, academic and employability skills.

We provide support to our students, enabling them to develop the necessary skills to meet the standards required for their programme of study. We also endeavour to prepare students for the working environment. The professional development sessions enable students to improve their skills, understand the business sector worldwide, and discover more about the real challenges faced in the working environment.

The workshops enable students to share knowledge, expand on their skills and stimulate new ideas. Such opportunities can enhance their skills and effectiveness as well as helping to establish and reach their individualised targets, which get reflected in their career goals.

Topics Covered in our Professional Development Workshops:

• Use of English by non-native speakers
• Challenges in business communication
• Organising and planning
• Time management
• Conducting research
• Note-taking
• Adacemic report writing and essays
• Giving effective presentations using powerpoint
• How to build practical skills for influencing others
• Referencing

The professional development team will give emphasis to the topics suggested by the students, evaluating outcomes and providing extra educational programmes based on the relevance of any areas of interest.
