Information about course
The course is based on the CLIL concept (Content and Language Integrated Learning) where almost all subjects are taught in English and German. The course is taught by native speakers of English and German who teach in teams of two in each subject. This cooperative approach means optimal input and interactive potential for all students. An important focus of the course is personal development, with soft skills such as business communication and teamwork. The course has an international orientation and a graduate of the course is well prepared for the challenges of an increasingly multicultural and diverse job market in Austria and beyond.
