Specialist Language Courses

Professional medical English and communication courses for healthcare professionals

Support your staff with courses that improve their ability to communicate and use English at work.

SLC works with hospitals and healthcare recruitment companies around the world to improve the professional clinical English and communication skills of their staff, as well as to prepare them for the OET and IELTS English language proficiency tests.

Medical English courses target the profession-specific needs of doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals so they can care for patients, work in international teams, keep up with research, make presentations, and work internationally.

OET and IELTS preparation courses enable candidates to achieve the scores they need to work and study in English-speaking countries.
