Business Language Courses

As the world gets flatter and more and more business people do more and more business globally, it seems to me that a premium will be paid to those who speak multiple languages. But an even greater premium will likely be paid to those who have successfully completed business language courses. There's a big difference, of course, between conversational questions like asking for directions to the nearest restaurant like most language courses teach and business questions like asking for pricing information on a custom built product.

I've run across one organization that offers such business language courses but there must be many. The one that I've run across is a U.K. firm that offers Spanish and English courses in London, Bristol, Brighton, Liverpool, etc. If there aren't many yet, hopefully there will be more in the future as there is a big need for services such as this.
