With our English Plus Professional Certificate program, students can combine a Kaplan English course with a concentrated course at Dublin Business School, Ireland’s largest independent third level college.
Our curriculum combines English and IELTS Exam Preparation lessons at our Dublin English school, before a 12-week certificate at Dublin Business School where students will choose to specialise in International Business, Sales or Tourism Marketing.
Explore a range of business-specific topics, building valuable skills that boost career potential in a variety of industries and enterprises. Upon completion of the course, students will gain an IELTS and English qualification certificate from Kaplan, alongside a Certificate in International Business, Sales or Tourism Marketing worth ECTS worth 30 ECTS credits.**
**The IELTS exam is optional, and comes at an additional cost which is not included in the course price. School staff will be on hand to find and book a test for any interested student, subject to availability. These courses are available to all students from the EU or students eligible for a 12-month working holiday visa in Ireland.
General English course
Our General English courses are designed to improve your English language skills and give you more professional and academic options in the future. As well as taking lessons, you will have plenty of time to sight-see and explore your destination.
The course is semi-intensive, and is available at all levels from Elementary to Advanced, with classes made up of different levels. The focus is on the four main aspects of language: reading, writing, listening and speaking, and all our schools offer extensive and varied activities programs to help you make the most of your destination.
General English is a great way to balance your English education with other activities, but we can guarantee you will improve your English if you switch to an Intensive course of 10 weeks or more in one of our US, UK, Canada or Ireland schools. If you don’t advance by at least one level of fluency, we’ll even give you an extra four weeks of tuition absolutely free.
