Italian for Business program in Florence is designed for students who are interested in business with Italy for professional reasons. The program focuses on the Italian language of business, aiming at providing students with the basic vocabulary and professional expressions that are most often used. The topics are confronted in several ways: with topical readings from manuals used in business schools, as well as analyses of letters, office documents and newspaper articles about business. After identifying the basic technical vocabulary and expressions, the student is helped to assimilate them through targeted exercises and discussions. On the request of the student, guided visits can be organized to businesses in the student's area of interest.
