This week, ELAM launched its annual 12 Days of Donating to various community, environmental, and health organisations for the third year in a row. Some of these organisations benefit from monthly donations, while others are supported by our annual campaign. Staff and clients make suggestions, and we all have very good reasons for choosing our causes.

As a company in an ever-changing marketplace, you’re always looking for ways to streamline recruitment. Language skills are important in many jobs, and it’s important to ensure that candidates have the right spoken and written language skills. Providing organizations and candidates with a balanced, fair, and comfortable assessment process has been the driving force behind our language assessment services since 2001. We collaborate with our talent acquisition partners to ensure a stress-free and efficient overall experience.
The COVID-19 pandemic completely altered ELAM’s methods of operation in 2020 and 2021. In the latter part of 2020, the Pew Research Center reported that approximately 71% of employed adults worked from home, up from just 20% before the outbreak. As of 2022, some regions of the world are gradually returning to normalcy, but many businesses are closing their doors. They have realized how cost-effective remote business management can be while assuring the staff’s work is up to par!
ELAM is thrilled to announce that, for the second year in a row, we have been selected as a finalist for the Top Supplier as part of WBE Canada’s 2022 Excellence Awards!
There are numerous free language iPhone and Android applications available.
Many of these apps cannot take you all the way to fluency, but they can get you off to an excellent start.

As the world discovers alternative methods of working without human interaction, the work-fromhome workforce is undergoing a transformation. The majority of non-essential workers must complete
their work from home. In the midst of a pandemic, could working from home actually increase your
efficiency?
As the demand grows for language classes, so does ELAM. Since 1994 we have provided companies with innovative and fruitful language programs.
With our in-depth knowledge of the business world and intuitive insight into customer needs, supported by state-of-the-art digital teaching tools, ELAM enables companies in any industry to engage with their clients and stakeholders confidently.
Our customized training, a network of certified teachers, and ability to offer our services worldwide through virtual courses have benefited many companies in developing their employees’ language skills.
As there is now a talent scarcity in the global workplace, the ideal approach is to generate viable candidates as opposed to attracting personnel. This implies that training managers and headhunters are all competing for talent in order to bolster their internal talent pools. Implementing effective upskilling and reskilling programmes is a fantastic strategy to deal with this issue.
Some jobs require a specific language level (e.g., administrative, legal secretary, copywriter, etc.), and in these cases, ELAM’s Professional Language Certificate is indispensable. Talent acquisition managers are not always able to gage the required language level for a position. Similarly, managers wanting to promote employees to new positions may need to provide proof of their language competency to perform the job adequately.
Having a multilingual workforce is good for all kinds of businesses. It means better communication and problem-solving skills, more creativity, more confidence, and more chances to form alliances and build a strong customer base. Our clients often ask us how to get their employees to learn a new language to keep them motivate and to build loyalty.
