Learnship, the business language learning solution provider, announced the launch of Sprint Business Skills Healthcare & Pharma. The fast-paced, online learning solution helps health professionals acquire relevant English vocabulary to better communicate at work.
With scientific research and papers published in English, and production sites scattered all over the world, pharma professionals know they need excellent skills in English. But learning a foreign language can take years of hard work.
“Business goes much faster than that. This is why we developed Sprint: to allow professionals to improve their business English skills in a matter of weeks and make an immediate difference in the workplace,” said Robert Szabo, Vice President of Learning Sciences, Learnship. “As a company that provides language training to leading pharma companies for the past ten years, we are used to providing specific Business English support on pharma topics.”
As its name suggests, Sprint Business Skills Healthcare & Pharma revolves entirely around medical issues. Learnship’s professional writers dived into authoritative material, researching the current and future pharma trends, to develop an intensive five-week course where learners focus on topics that matter to them, such as new therapies, consumerization of health, and vaccines.
Each week, learners get to take on new indispensable vocabulary through engaging digital modules, and spend a full hour practicing relatable scenarios, such as product development strategy meetings, sales discussions, and R&D meetings, with a professional trainer, until they become fully confident and fluent. For more flexibility, everything happens online – which also means the trainers are recruited based on their expertise and field of competence only, regardless of their location.
Topics covered:
- Gene editing
- Digital therapies
- The future of medicine
- Nanomedicine
- R&D
- Biotechnology
- Telemedicine
- Wearable devices
- Market trends in healthcare
- Vaccine innovation
- Regulatory affairs
- Clinital trial
Features of Sprint Business Skills Healthcare & Pharma at launch include:
- An initial placement test to assess the learner’s proficiency
- A five-week program, available from A2 to C1 levels, focusing on pharma content
– One hour a week of self-paced digital learning content
– Five weekly 60-min sessions with an expert trainer - Unlimited access to additional tools, such as email templates, a news feed, and a culture center that can be used directly on the job.
“We developed Sprint Business Skills Healthcare & Pharma as part of a bigger project we call Precision Learning: we target the challenges of a position, a department, or an industry and create customized content that addresses these specific needs. We currently offer 16 courses covering various topics ranging from logistics to negotiations, working in remote teams, and Pharma – with many more to come over the next months.”
