Help your employees communicate confidently in French at work.
Many companies work closely with clients, suppliers and colleagues in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Your employees may already have a foundation in French.
Their French should reflect their expertise.
Many organisations discover that while employees understand French reasonably well, they often lack the confidence to use it naturally in everyday business situations.
Perhaps this sounds familiar:
Employees avoid speaking French whenever possible
Meetings quickly switch to English
Telephone conversations with French-speaking clients feel stressful
Collaboration between the German-speaking and French-speaking parts of Switzerland could be more efficient
That's where we can help!
Our practical French programmes help employees communicate more confidently, naturally and professionally with colleagues, customers and business partners in French.
Whether you need individual coaching for key employees or group training for teams, we'll help you find the solution that best fits your organisation.

Working with French-speaking Switzerland
The goal isn't simply better French. It's more confident communication throughout your organisation.
French for communicating with clients and colleagues in French-speaking Switzerland
Many companies aren't looking for a traditional French course.
They simply want their employees to work more effectively with customers, colleagues and business partners in French-speaking Switzerland.
Our training focuses on real workplace situations, helping employees develop the confidence to use French where it matters most.
The right solution for every employee and every team
No two organisations are the same.
Some companies are looking for training for a single employee. Others need several groups with different language levels, departments or learning objectives.
We'll recommend the structure that best fits your organisation and take care of the planning, so organising language training remains simple for HR.
For example, you may choose:
Separate groups based on language level
Different programmes for different departments
1:1 coaching for executives alongside team training
Business French for customer-facing employees and General French for other teams
Different lesson times to suit each group
Not everyone has the same communication needs.
Executives and key employees often benefit from individual Business French coaching for presentations, negotiations, meetings and other high-impact situations.
Employees and teams usually make the greatest progress through practical French lessons delivered in small groups or 1:1 sessions.
