This is the second part of our Business English Pod series on English training and development vocabulary and collocations.
Good training is crucial for any company, big or small. How can we expect people to do a good job if they don’t have the right knowledge, kỹ năng, and tools? Providing employees with these tools is a key function of training.
And training is what we’ll be talking about today. We’ll be looking at some important vocabulary and collocations related to training. Nhớ lại, collocations are natural combinations of words that native speakers commonly use. There are no clear rules to collocation, only patterns. When you learn a new word, you should try to learn what other words are used with it. Ví dụ, you might think that “crime” is a useful word to know, but it will be difficult to use it if you don’t know that we usually use the verb “commit” before it, as in: “commit a crime.”
Trong tập cuối, you heard many useful training collocations. We listened to Jeff, who works in HR at an engineering firm, talk with David, who has just given a presentation on new approaches to training. We heard Jeff explain how his company wants to improve their learning and development program. Hôm nay, David will explain more about learner-centered training.
