SUZHOU, China, April 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) recently launched a range language and business Summer School courses jointly hosted by the University's Language Centre and International Business School Suzhou (IBSS).

The new programs focus on Mandarin Chinese and Chinese and Business and are open to anyone interested in getting to grips with Chinese language or wanting to learn about the business environment in the world's most dynamic economy while also picking up the language as you study.

With a choice of either a two week intensive course, or a month long option from 7^th July to 15^th August, participants will get the chance to learn and practice their language skills in a dedicated, professional environment, supported by experienced and fully certified teaching staff.
