Why?
What’s in it for the expats, their family and their company?
International Mobility is common sense these days. Relocation abroad is a huge step and a challenge: changes to a new environment, a different language, another climate, a new school for the children… The target of a Cultural Training is to gain knowledge of the new culture and to avoid misunderstandings. Practical strategies which will facilitate integration. We make you feel at home. A well prepared expat with a happy family will maximise success and minimise failures of foreign assignments!
A glimpse of the content:
- Dealing with cultural differences and avoiding misunderstandings
- What characterises the country
- What determined the ‘Belgian identity’ today
- How many governments does Belgium have
- Any differences between Flanders, Wallonia, the East cantons?
- Local values and habits, some useful hints & tips
- How to find a doctor and receive refunds from the health insurance
- How to use the public transport
- How to recycle waste
- Why is Belgian chocolate so popular, which beer to drink
