In our increasingly diverse society, organisations require more than ever intercultural awareness and effective cross- cultural communication skills to achieve their goals. Understanding and appreciating intercultural differences builds the basis for effective relationships with culturally diverse clients, customers, colleagues and business partners.
This training enables participants to recognise the impacts of culture on personal and collective values, communication style and behaviour and delivers effective strategies to improve cross-cultural understanding and communication. It effectively promotes awareness and increases personal skills and strategies for achieving cultural competence.

CULTURAL AWARENESS TRAINING

awareness
Inadequate communication with people who have limited English proficiency limits their ability to access services but also has profound impact on the quality of service they receive once they have accessed it. Where communication between client and service personnel iss disturbed, interpreters and translators are of invaluable aid.
 
Often the success of an interpreting session depends on the worker having acquired skills in the effective use of interpreters. These skills are developed in this practical training.
