Just a quick browse will allow you to judge what our benchmark is as Business English professionals and how we seek to educate and develop our clients in different parts of the world.”

E-book PCS Roy BicknellWhat was the biggest challenge in developing this E-book?

“The challenges were considerable: nothing like this had ever been done before within the field of Business English and even though we were experienced editors, we were new to the world of digital publishing. The incredible thing, looking back on this, is that our team have never been together in one room. Everything was created through long Skype sessions, Google drive and Dropbox. Sounds like a real global business, right?”
