A sabbatical entails a longer-term placement, where the goal is to unwind from a hectic work environment and focus on self-development. A language training program in connection with recreational activities is possible.
Take a Break
A sabbatical is a unique opportunity to take a certain amount of time out from one's profession. The reason for this may be out of personal or family interest: a trip around the world, a social engagement, professional development or professional reorientation. More and more employers are offering time away for months at a time. This contributes significantly to the motivation and creativity of people working in stressful jobs, and is especially helpful in avoiding burnout.
Combined Language Courses
Many people who decide to take a sabbatical opt to combine that with a language training program abroad. While working, many people cannot dedicate enough time to learning a language. Away from home it is possible to give your set objectives priority, without being distracted by work or other responsibilities. As not to neglect the entertainment factor during a sabbatical, we offer various combined language courses. Learning a language in a class setting may not necessarily give you all the confidence you need to go it alone. The more modern approach is to combine flexible, adaptable classes with recreational activities, for example: golfing, sailing, diving, dancing, cooking, music and art.
A Win-Win Situation
For both the employer and employee, sabbaticals usually result in a win-win situation. The employee has the opportunity to achieve his or her own goals and develop on a personal and professional level. The employer benefits from a well-rested and rejuvenated employee who returns motivated, efficient, with new ideas and broadened knowledge and experience horizons.
Tailor-Made Programs
Someone who decides to take a sabbatical to learn a new language or to deepen their current knowledge can decide themselves how they'd like to do so. A great variety of options are possible. It is our pleasure to be able to assist you in the planning and organization of your stay abroad.
