What is it?
Ensure your relocation programmes are a success with our Culture Integration Course for Newcomers to Ireland. Employees moving to a new country must be able to put roots down in their new home in order to settle in well and to perform well at work. Integrating into their new workplace, their new area, and the wider community is essential when living and working in Ireland.
To do this, a good grasp of the language and local culture is vital when it comes to integrating quickly, or even settling in at all. Our training is delivered online, so your relocating employees also have the opportunity to get to know the language and culture of their new home before they even arrive.
Who is this course aimed at?
International employees who have just arrived to Ireland or who have not yet had the opportunity to learn about cultural aspects that will support them in the workplace as well as help them settle in otherwise in Ireland.
What our clients say:
“NGINX has had an outstanding experience with AllTalk Training. When we relocated a team from Eastern Europe to Ireland, we wanted to offer the employees and their spouses English language courses as a relocation benefit. We offered the benefit because language is an essential part of integration into a new culture and success in the workplace. We wanted our team to have the support they needed to establish a new life in Ireland, integrate into Irish society and be effective at work. We were looking for a partner in Ireland that: Provides high-quality language instruction Integrates culture into the curriculum Works effectively across different levels of language skill Is flexible and can work around the needs of the team (both in terms of scheduling and curriculum) Initially, AllTalk Training instructors would meet the course participants at our office. When Covid forced a temporary shutdown of in-person work, courses were moved online. The transition to online courses was very smooth and professional. Working with All Talk Training has been easy and enjoyable. The team is very responsive to concerns and transparent in communication. This benefit is managed from headquarters in the United States and, despite the time difference, we’ve had nothing but a positive experience with AllTalk Training.”
Inna Morgounova – Senior Director, NGINX Business Strategy
“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.”
