ELLIS Business SeriesTM is a comprehensive English training solution for virtually anyone in any
industry.

Advancements in technology and the shrinking of the globe have made English the common
language of business, communications, travel, higher education, diplomacy, the internet, and
many other areas. With these developments, the ability to communicate effectively in English is
essential. Developed specifically to meet these needs, the ELLIS Business Series focuses on
enhancing business communication skills.
To achieve this, ELLIS uses some of the most advanced multimedia capabilities available to
combine high-quality graphics, digital sound and voice recording, video, animation, text, and
interactive point-and-click screen controls in a comprehensive user-friendly environment.

Best of all, ELLIS makes all this language instruction power exceptionally easy to learn and use.
The simplicity of use and interactive nature of the program ensure that anyone can succeed.
Within its five volumes is information useful for entry-level employees up to the most experienced
executive. So, whether you're a CEO, a hotel clerk, a secretary, or literally anyone in any
industry, the ELLIS Business Series has something for you.

The ELLIS Business Series enables proficiency and inspires confidence in real-life situations. The
Airport theme gives learners practical experience in everything from getting through customs to
dealing with a cancelled flight. Employees also learn what to say to, and how to deal with, an
irate customer. The Transportation theme allows learners to choose from all types of modes of
transportation and learn the words and cultural insights they might need to get where they're
going.

The Hotels theme helps learners become familiar with both the social and communicative
language skills involved with checking in and out, room service, concierge, and even disputing the
bill. Food service workers learn skills to take orders, offer suggestions, and how to use language
respectfully, while patrons learn skills to cover all aspects of ordering, eating, and paying for
breakfast, lunch, dinner and more.

Office and Social skills lessons focus on helping learners acquire the tools to introduce
themselves to a receptionist, make small talk, and supply cultural information to help them give
and accept compliments, make invitations, communicate over the telephone, and close
conversations comfortably in the English language.

In Meetings and Business Discussions, learners gain confidence and practical virtual experience
in planning meetings, conducting meetings, describing trends, and reporting results in English. In
addition, learners gain language skills in discussing and expressing opinions, finding solutions
and other topics necessary for effective communication with co-workers.

Considering options, clarifying meaning, handling objections, reaching agreement, seeking
assurances and making requests are all covered in the Contracts and Negotiations volume-as well
as discussing legal issues, term and termination, technology, and territorial issues.

With over 750 available hours, the ELLIS Business Series is the most comprehensive Business
English language program available anywhere.
