Opintojaksolla opiskellaan ammattialan keskeistä englanninkielistä sanastoa sekä yleensä työelämän viestintätilanteissa tarvittavaa sanastoa ja kehitetään työelämän viestintätaitoja. Opiskelijat voivat vaikuttaa opintojakson sisältämään sanastoon ryhmäprojektien aihevalinnoilla. Lisäksi päivitetään tiedot englannin kielen sanastonhallinnasta sekä tehostetaan taitoja englannin opiskelussa ja apuvälineiden käytössä.
