With the UK gripped in Royal Wedding fever, English UK would like to remind you that there will be another very important event in London on Saturday 14 May, the English UK Business English Trainers' Conference.

US-based author, Vicki Hollett, the author of best selling Business English course-book, Business Objectives and the highly-acclaimed Tech Talk will be making a rare European pit stop at the annual English UK Business English Trainers' Conference on Saturday, 14 May 2011 at International House in London. Vicki will kick off the conference with a session entitled, "English for Getting Things Done." The session will explore ways that we can help our learners to develop rapport and solidarity, mitigate conflict, and avoid misunderstandings in their professional lives.

It was announced today that Vicki Hollett, who has won first prize in the English Speaking Union competition for two of her publications, will be delivering the opening plenary at the English UK Business English Trainers' Conference on 14 May 2011.
