Why learn languages nowadays?

Languages are a career booster!

Would you like to gain an advantage in your professional life or on the labour market? Languages are more important than ever in our networked world. A quick chat with a colleague in Nigeria, an email with a business partner in Mexico and then a Zoom meeting with investors in Korea. The majority of business communication is in English - and most people speak English very well. But you have an advantage in the application process if you score points with one - or even several - additional languages!

Further reasons arise from the constellation of Switzerland and its four national languages: German, French, Italian and Romansh. Language skills are therefore a key prerequisite for successful integration into society and the labour market.
