The purpose of the Erasmus Plus STT course on Business English for Higher Education Institutions Administrators is to develop the communication skills needed in the workplace.  Today, educational administrators of different levels (starting from secretary to rector) need a sound knowledge of the preparation of business documents (memos, reports, business correspondence, emails). The academic world has become fundamentally international and it is crucial for those being part of it to communicate effectively with each other using Business English as a medium.
