Paris-Based Specialist in Corporate Language Training Seeing Increased Demand for Enterprise-Level Learning
TransPerfect, the world’s largest provider of language and technology solutions for global business, announced that it has acquired Transfer Group. Transfer is a Paris-based language training firm focused on developing language skills for executives of corporate clients. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
“Investing in employee training and skill development is more important than ever for our large multinational clients. This transaction will help our combined customers achieve their business goals. And, of course, we would like to extend a warm welcome to the entire Transfer team.”
Transfer was founded in 1985 with a mission originally aimed at providing language training services for individuals, but that vision evolved to focus more on enterprise-level training needs for large multinational corporations. Today, Transfer works with clients across an array of industries—including consumer products, financial, automotive, and life sciences—and offers individual coaching and group delivery of both pre-packaged and customized curricula.

The LCT group has a long history of cultural awareness training and corporate testing and evaluation of language proficiency. In response to the current work environment, the combined team will offer a full suite virtual learning options in addition to their face-to-face offerings.
