Learning a new language?
One of the big practical issues faced by CIPFA members working outside the UK is becoming proficient in the language of their new country. Not only is this essential if working in that language, but it also eases integration and results in a far better quality experience of living in another country.
Information to assist CIPFA members looking to enhance their language skills has been provided by CIPFA European Group Secretary, Vicky Bainbridge. Click here for further information.
