Organisation profile:Our main activity : the language needs of employees of small and medium sized companies (how to describe them? how to find an adequate solution for their problems ? how to create effective language learning material for that type of public ? how to test their communicative competence and their intercultural awareness?) - the possibilities and limits of new technology enhanced language learning (NTELL). In our view it should be selfstudying multimedia condensed material, for instance on CD ROM/internet.
