Nick Brieger is one of the five directors of York Associates. After a first degree in law and an M.A. in Applied Linguistics, his early career included language training and teacher training, mainly throughout Europe. Working as a university lecturer in Czechoslovakia in the early 70's, he recognised the importance of English as a common language to forge international contacts and better understanding. In the 80's, he continued to develop links with the countries of Eastern Europe, especially Poland, Hungary, Russia, Ukraine and Georgia, where he worked with teachers and trainers on developing communication skills programmes for managers. In the 90's, the accelerated demand for English as a Global Language took him to Asia, where he helped spread the word about the need to develop English language competence amongst those interested in pursuing international careers. In recent years, he has worked closely with a range of major international organisations in both the public and private sectors on communication and intercultural training programmes. In addition to his training activities, he is the author of more than 20 books in the field of language, communication and culture. His most recent titles have been in the areas of Technical English, Legal English and Business English testing.
