Online Business Arabic Courses for Professionals

Learn to use Arabic in your professional environment with a dedicated teacher and a program built around your level, your profession and your goals.

Training directly applicable to your work

Meetings, emails, phone calls, presentations, negotiations, customer relations and professional documents: lessons focus on the situations in which you genuinely need to use Arabic.

Unlike a general Arabic-language program, Business Arabic is personalized after an assessment. The time required depends on your starting level, your professional field and the skills you want to acquire.

Professional Arabic

Use Arabic more independently in your work

The goal is not to accumulate vocabulary lists, but to learn to communicate accurately in real professional situations.

The teacher identifies the situations in which you use, or will need to use, Arabic and then organizes the lessons around the language skills you need.

Depending on your level, the work may cover speaking, reading documents, professional writing, understanding Arabic-speaking contacts, or preparing meetings and presentations.

If your work is connected to a specific Arab country, the teacher can also introduce you to expressions and communication habits specific to that context.

Skills covered

Present your role, your company, a product or a project and communicate with Arabic-speaking contacts.

A Professional Arabic program tailored to your needs

There is no single program for every professional. After the initial assessment, the teacher selects the skills, vocabulary and situations that should be addressed first.

Exchanges, meetings and calls

Specialized Arabic

Vocabulary for your sector

The teacher builds part of the program around the terminology, documents and situations specific to your profession.

  • Administrative terminology
  • Business and financial vocabulary
  • Medical or educational Arabic
  • Legal terminology as needed
  • Customer relations and service
  • Specific vocabulary provided by the student

The program is not fixed in advance.

During your free 30-minute assessment , we determine your current level, the situations in which you need to use Arabic and the priority skills to work on.

Training adapted to your professional sector

The vocabulary needed by a sales manager is not the same as that of a healthcare professional, teacher or lawyer. That is why part of the course can be built around your work and, where relevant, your own professional documents.

  • Trade and sales: customer relations, products, offers, orders and negotiations.
  • Import-export: suppliers, orders, deliveries, payments and commercial exchanges.
  • Finance and administration: financial and administrative terminology and formal communication.
  • Management and entrepreneurship: project presentations, organization, teams and partnerships.
  • Marketing and communication: offer presentations, sales arguments, campaigns and customer relations.
  • Tourism and hospitality: reception, bookings, information and customer care.
  • Healthcare sector: professional communication and terminology adapted to the student's needs.
  • Education: communication with students, families, colleagues and institutions.
  • Legal sector: professional vocabulary and documents according to the level and objectives.
  • International relations and humanitarian work: institutional exchanges, field communication and intercultural contexts.
Is your field not listed? The program can be prepared for other sectors as long as your language needs can be clearly identified during the assessment.

Lessons built around real professional situations

Learning is mainly practical. Vocabulary and grammar are studied when they are needed to better understand, speak or write in the professional context being worked on.

  • Professional dialogues: practice with exchanges close to your real work situations.
  • Role plays: simulations of meetings, calls, appointments, interviews or business exchanges.
  • Document-based work: reading and understanding emails, presentations or documents suited to your level.
  • Written communication: writing and then correcting professional messages and documents.
  • Pronunciation: correcting sounds and errors that may hinder understanding.
  • Sector-specific vocabulary: learning the terms needed for your role.
  • Scenario practice: preparing for a real meeting, presentation, trip or negotiation.
  • Regular review: consolidating points that are not yet fully mastered before moving on.

Modern Standard Arabic or dialect: what should you learn for work?

For documents, formal correspondence, presentations and many professional exchanges, Modern Standard Arabic generally provides the most important foundation.

If your work mainly concerns one country or region, expressions from the local dialect can then be introduced to make spoken exchanges with colleagues, clients or partners easier.

The right choice therefore depends on your situation. Someone working with several Arabic-speaking countries will not have exactly the same needs as a professional based long-term in Egypt or a Gulf country.

Do you first need to strengthen your general Arabic? The teacher may guide you toward our Modern Standard Arabic program before gradually introducing Professional Arabic.

Training organized around your level and objective

Business Arabic does not correspond to the same number of hours for every student. Someone who already has a good level of Arabic and wants to prepare for business meetings will not follow the same path as a beginner preparing to relocate to an Arabic-speaking country.

The duration is therefore defined after the initial assessment and then adjusted according to your progress and the objectives to be reached.

  • Initial assessment: analysis of your language level and professional needs.
  • Defined objectives: priority skills are identified before the program begins.
  • Dedicated teacher: individual follow-up throughout the program.
  • Personalized program: content evolves according to your profession and your progress.
  • Personal documents: where relevant, some of your own materials can be used as a basis for study.
  • Assessment of learning: the teacher regularly checks your ability to use the skills studied.
Program duration: it is determined after assessing your level and needs. It may change according to your progress, the number of lessons taken and the personal work completed between lessons.

Who are Business Arabic courses for?

  • Employees working with Arabic-speaking colleagues, clients or partners.
  • Entrepreneurs and executives developing their activity in one or more Arab countries.
  • Professionals preparing to relocate or take up a position in an Arabic-speaking environment.
  • Sales professionals, export managers, buyers and customer-relations professionals.
  • Students preparing for a career that requires professional use of Arabic.
  • Professionals in finance, tourism, education, healthcare, law or humanitarian work.
  • People who already speak Arabic but want to develop a more professional and precise register.
Are you a complete beginner in Arabic? The assessment will determine whether Professional Arabic can be introduced immediately or whether it is better to build the foundations of reading and language first.
