The app for your first job
EmployaLingua® teaches you the English you need at work — not everyday English, but the words, phrases, and conversations of your sector. Healthcare. Construction. Digital. Teaching. Whether you are looking for work or already working below your level, EmployaLingua® walks you forward.

How it works
You don't have to decide what to study, how to study it, or where to start. The app knows.
Choose your sector
Healthcare, Construction, Digital, or Teaching. Everything you learn will be the real language of that sector — the words, phrases, and conversations you'll actually need at work.
Follow your path
Your path is ready. Vocabulary. Reading passages. Conversations with a virtual colleague, supervisor, or patient. Each activity is set at exactly your level. You just tap Start.
Watch your CV build
Every activity you complete adds to your professional profile. By the end, you have a real CV with real evidence — how many words you know, what you've read, which conversations you've passed.
The path
You don't have to figure out what to study today.
The path tells you exactly what to do next.
Vocabulary activities. Workplace reading passages. AI conversation simulations where you practise talking to a virtual supervisor, patient, or interviewer. Each one at your level. Each one building on the last. When you complete a level, you pass an assessment gate — and your CEFR Passport updates automatically.

What you earn
Every activity you complete builds two things at once: your language ability, and your professional profile. You don't have to write your CV. It writes itself as you go.
The CEFR Passport describes what you can do in plain, confident language — not a list of what you struggled with. The Smart CV shows an employer exactly what you've achieved: words mastered, passages read, conversations passed.
Both are available in English and your home language. Both are yours to download and share.

Your journey
EmployaLingua® is built on one belief: you already have skills, experience, and capability. The language is the only thing between you and the work you can do.
Settle
You are here. New country, new language, new rules. EmployaLingua® meets you where you are — whether you are looking for work or already working in a role that doesn't match your skills.
A1 · A2Connect
You can understand your colleagues. Follow instructions. Ask questions. Communicate in the situations that matter at work. Your CV is building automatically as you go.
A2 · B1Contribute
You are doing the job you are qualified to do — not a version of it, the actual thing. Your CEFR Passport and Smart CV show employers what you are capable of, in their language and yours.
B1 · B2Lead
You are not just employed at your level. You are progressing beyond it. Your language and your professional identity have grown together — and the work you do reflects both.
B2 +How it was built
EmployaLingua® was not designed in an office and handed to learners. It was built in Manchester, tested by real people going through exactly what you are going through — new country, new language, new start — and changed based on what they said.
The words, the activities, the path, the way the app speaks to you — all of it was shaped by the feedback of people who used the prototype first. If something did not work for them, it was fixed before it reached you.

ReStart Project
DWP-contracted · National delivery
Government employment programme. EmployaLingua® is embedded within the ReStart Project — supporting long-term unemployed people back into work.
Partner testimonial
Many of the learners who tested the prototype already knew what they were capable of — in another country, in another language. EmployaLingua® met them where they were.
"EmployaLingua is a game changer. We saw our students test the platform and their faces lit up. They were really impressed by the personalised learning plan."
