Studying in Germany – Intercultural Training for Students from USA

Richard Markowsky

Country Specific, Cross Cultural, Intercultural Communication

October 30, 2011

Description

This training program is especially targeted for American university students, but all exchange students, people on business and tourists can use this information to prepare themselves for a stay in Germany. It is addressed and written for all those people who are interested in the German-American cultural differences as well as for all of those who are curious and interested in how Germans appear and are seen by their foreign visitors. You will be given a variety of typical daily situations which are often critical turning points for the acceptance and understanding between visitors and members of the host country. The chosen situations are known as “stumbling blocks”, which often create confusion, misunderstandings and conflicts for many foreigners. The training helps you to avoid intercultural misunderstandings from the start and thus makes it easier for you to cope with the foreign culture.
