Corporate Training




For more than fifteen years, CPBE has been the top provider of English-language services in Hong Kong. Set up as a joint venture between eight major corporations and Hong Kong Polytechnic University, we continue to set the standard in delivering training solutions.

We have conducted training in more workplaces than any other providers. See who we have worked with.

We work with every kind of organisation, from hospitality to retail to investment banking. From small to large, and from local to international. We help people on the front-line and people in the most senior positions. Whatever your business and whatever your needs, we will meet you to discuss how we can help.


If you work with us, we will:

  • identify any challenges your organisation is facing in meeting its goals
  • help you decide what type of training to deliver
  • design programmes and support services to meet your organisation's needs
  • report to you on the progress of your staff 


How will you benefit?

You will be able to:

  • fully understand what your staff need help with
  • spend your training budget more wisely
  • develop more effective and motivated staff
  • build a stronger professional image for your organisation
  • save money and time


What skills can we help you with?

We are skilled in helping executives and professionals polish their communication skills in a number of areas. 

In writing: we promote the modern business writing style known globally as ‘Plain English’. This style is simple, clear and accurate and applies to all types of documents.

In speaking: we build confidence and credibility to enable staff to get better results and build stronger relationships.

  • classroom activities
  • experiential and task-based learning
