100 hours of study, divided into 10 clearly defined 10-hour sections. Each section focuses on a vital area of practice, giving students the tools to perform effectively at work. Students have 4 months to complete the course.

The course is set at a pre-intermediate level (A2-B1 in the Common European Framework). At this level, you can currently understand and communicate in simple sentences in familiar situations, such as travel, work and family. This course will significantly improve the language skills nurses use at work.

During the course, students watch videos, listen to conversations, read medical texts, analyse charts and graphs, look at work-related photographs and images, and study vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation focus points.

Students take a wide range of exercises to help learn the language they need. The exercises concentrate on scenarios using English at work.

Click on any word to get its meaning and listen to how it should be said - in both British and American English.

Students can track their results and the time they spend online. And at the end of every unit, there is a progress assessment so students can see what they have learnt.

On completing the course, all students receive a certificate stating the name and level of the course, and a description of what they have learnt.

Virginia Allum is a practising Registered Nurse, a lecturer in English for Medical Purposes, and a widely published writer, including co-authoring the Cambridge English for Nursing text books, and creating practice materials for the Occupational English Test.
