Ways to Help
There are many ways to help out in the BLC programme and enable schools to raise the profile of language learning.
The Business Language Champions programme is very flexible and events
will depend upon business and school schedules, the number of students
(or schools) involved and which languages are being promoted.
The scope for BLC events is very wide but they generally come under the following categories:
Short talks and Workshops
BLC
short talks and workshops are a quick and effective way of getting
across the message that languages are very relevant to today's
workforce. Short talks work well if schools have to fit activities
within a given lesson slot or if business representatives are unable to
commit to full-day events. Workshops are ideal as a 'one-off' event and
can always be built upon or repeated in the future.

Partnerships
These
are ongoing partnerships between a school and business. The activity
undertaken is decided upon by the partnership and is of an ongoing
nature, usually taking the form of workshops, workplace visits, etc.

Special events
These
special events are usually one-day events organised either by the
school or by an education organisation such as BLC, Young Enterprise or
the Institute for Education Business Excellence. Business Language
Champions are asked to attend to help out with activities and give them
a business focus.
