| ILI was founded in Princeton, NJ, in 1985. Since then, we've offered a variety of programs and services tailored to help participants develop and use leadership skills. Programs in executive education, language skill development and cultural immersion through travel are our core programs. We've made our base in the U.S. (in Tennessee and Florida) for the past 25 years, while traveling to Europe often, especially to the Czech Republic, to keep close to our customers and their changing needs.
In August, we relocate the ILI base to Prague, Jarda's hometown. We offer programs in career development (emphasizing the job search) and conversational English language skill development; we continue our Travel-and-Learn programs in the U. S. for Europeans, and in Prague for Americans.

ILI Programs for 2010
1. ENGLISH FOR YOU (EFY) Conversational American English lessons for individuals and small groups. EFY lessons are tailored for particular situations in which English is used, including English in the Workplace, English for Academic Purposes, and English for Social Occasions. Each EFY lesson helps students to build both spoken and written vocabulary by providing practice in conversation using the specialized vocabulary for that particular situation. All lessons are led by native speakers of American English. EFY programs are offered in Prague, beginning in August 2010.
2. Career seminars ("21st Century Jobs") for small groups and individuals. These seminars (given in either Czech or English) provide basic instruction about the correct way to choose, apply for, interview and win the job you will like and can do best. The "21st Century Jobs" seminar is led by seasoned professionals with decades of experience, who've helped thousands of people, young and old, to get their next job and to plan their careers successfully. This seminar is offered in the U.S. through July 31, then in Prague for the remainder of 2010.
3. Travel-and-Learn programs in the U.S. or Central Europe. These custom-designed travel programs combine tourism (seeing the best-known, most beautiful parts of the countries visited) with a brief educational overview of the history, social conditions, religious beliefs, political persuasions and economic conditions of the areas visited. Popular U. S.-based Travel-and-Learn programs include Florida, New York City and the American West. ILI also offers Travel-and-Learn programs to Central European countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Switzerland and Austria). For 2010, an "Anti-Stress program in Florida" will be offered in October or November (dates to be announced); a "Jewels of the American West" program will be offered in May 2011.
