What our clients say:
“AllTalk Training’s courses are not only about studying English, they are about cultural adaptation and that’s exactly what I was looking for. My trainer takes into consideration the learner’s needs and requests – whether it is a particular grammar topic, cultural question, or language practice.
The class itself is very friendly, supportive, and flexible. We had different types of classes including offline, online sessions via Zoom, and even a great interactive scone-eating lesson. My trainer is very positive, friendly, open-minded and super helpful. I would definitely recommend her as a teacher for everyone who is moving to Ireland and is eager to get to know and find out more about Irish culture.”

FAQ's
Is this course eligible for CPD Points?
Upon successful completion, participants are awarded a certificate which details the commitment involved. This allows HR departments to make a determination as to the allocation of CPD points for successful completion of our courses, according to their own internal CPD systems.
AllTalk Training is not on the National Framework of Qualifications as a credit bearing course. This is standard practice for professional courses of this nature where the need is for fresh and actionable skills (in a shorter form course) that are demonstrated immediately in the workplace.
