Portuguese for assignees and families
Online Portuguese for international employees relocating to Brazil, plus their partners and children. Classes are live and one-to-one, adapted to each person's level, goals and schedule.
For HR and Global Mobility teams
Portuguese training for assignees relocating to Brazil, and for their families
Live, one-to-one online Portuguese programs that start before the move and continue after arrival, with level assessments and clear monthly reporting for HR.
Assignments rarely fail at the office. They fail at home.
The assignee often settles into work quickly, in a familiar corporate language. The partner and children, meanwhile, face the pharmacy, the school, the neighbors and the paperwork in Portuguese. When they struggle, the assignment is at risk.
Language support that starts before the move and includes the family protects the investment you have already made in the assignment.
