What We Do

Talk has changed.  In this new millennium, people increasingly organize their work, play, and learning as purposeful, time-bound interaction in virtual groups and communities.  In these busy networked settings, people and teams need to make every turn of conversation contribute - to the project and to relations in their network.

Cogent Language helps professionals perform more effectively in these contexts.  We specialize in building competencies for online project work.  Our approach is to identify or to design and build usable and affordable learning ecologies appropriate to our clients' needs.  These are experiential learning opportunities, pervasively available via cost-effective systems and media.

Cogent Language started our work as a pure consulting organization.  We provide most of our services online.  Initial projects were blended and e-learning language programs for the US, Europe, and Latin America.

After successful consulting engagements for Asia, we opened a branch in Japan in 2007.  To better serve the Asia–Pacific region, we expanded our services in 2010 to extend open enrollment learning opportunities to individuals.
