KEA Global arranges courses and workshops on internationalisation, culture and language.
Their aim is to encourage reflection on cultural differences, inspire to international collaboration and networking and to boost global communication and languages. The courses are marked for students or for staff/teachers.
Most of the courses and workshops are free of charge (see under “Price”).
Why not learn Danish with other students at KEA?! Learning together is fun and it’s convenient that the classes can match your KEA week schedule.

Settling in Denmark is easier if you speak a little Danish.
Although Danes tend to speak English, you’ll get a deeper connection and make friends easier, if you’re able to communicate in Danish. This is also important when you need to prepare for an internship or a job in Denmark. In return, you’re bound to build up a network – for the benefit of your social and professional life.
KEA has contracted with the language providers, UCplus, who will teach Danish on our campuses. The courses are free of charge, however a deposit of 2000 DKK is charged upon registration. The deposit will be paid back to you once you’ve completed your module.
Among other advantages, the courses will be flexibly organised to fit your schedule and you’ll be learning together with other KEA students, exclusively.
The Danish classes will take place twice a week, based on blended learning. One afternoon a week you’ll meet for classroom teaching, and another afternoon a week for online teaching.
Whether you are a Beginner or Continuer at learning Danish, UCplus will find the right course for you at KEA.

Once you’ve signed up, KEA’s new language provider, UCplus, will contact you to find your level of Danish and to hear which location you’d prefer to have your classes.
Instead of having to learn Danish after work hours at the other end of town (and having to pay), you can learn Danish with your colleagues at one of KEA’s locations during the day, free of charge.
These Danish classes are tailored to fit the needs of international teachers at KEA. The focus is on conversation, understanding and talking Danish.
Course instructor: The Danish courses are held by KEA’s external partner, International Communication, who are experienced providers of professional language for business life and for private individuals.

Would you like help with your English? This could be sparring on a presentation that you are going to make in English or a short brush-up course. It could also be that you want regular training and aim to take your English to another level.
As these sessions are run as one-to-one meetings, you can decide almost exactly what kind of English support you’d like.
