The article presents many opportunities of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) training, as of January 01, 2004. EFL training is a common denominator for change. And it's a new market that promises to be big business. In an era of 24-by-7 work weeks and global strategy, it has become commonplace to talk about the internationalization of business and the need for cross-cultural work teams. Implied in those concepts is a presumption that co-workers share a common vision, as well as a dependable way to share ideas and solve problems and a common language. For the vast majority of the world's workers, proficiency in the English language has become both challenge and opportunity, yet another job requirement to be met but at the same time a key competitive differentiator for individual workers, corporations and entire economies. Many global market watchers assert that for people in the non-English speaking world, English language proficiency means opportunity, better jobs, higher salaries.
