Training
Q: Is it possible to meet one of MYL's trainers in person before signing up for a course?
A: Most of our trainers are stationed overseas so it is unlikely that you can meet with them. However, we can provide you with brief bios of your designated trainers for your reference.
Q: Should I take the online English quotient test?
A: We strongly recommend that all students take the test before starting the course so that we can provide you with the most appropriate assignment questions based on your test result.
Q: When and where can I get my MYLEP training account?
A: Your MYLEP User ID and Password will be sent to you by email within three days of confirmation of the course.
Q: Can I submit all the assignments at the same time?
A: In order to get the most from the course, we recommend that you read and learn from the trainer's comments before working on the next assignment. For this reason, you are only allowed to submit 3 assignments at any one time.
Q: What happens if my assignment is longer than 250 words?
A: The trainer will only mark the first 250 words of any document.
Q: What can I do online apart from sending assignments?
A: The online system also provides you with additional reading materials, grammar tips, online exercises and company news. Please visit our training page regularly to make the most of our resources.
Q: Can I let my colleagues use my account?
A: No. Your trainer marks each of your assignments and makes comments based on that assignment and your general progress. Submitting a document which has not been written by yourself will not help you to improve your English.
Q: If I have a question about one of my assignments, how do I ask my trainer?
A: Please include your question in the comments box next time when you submit an assignment. You may also include a question on your assignment document.
Q: If I go on a business trip aboard, can I still use the service?
A: Yes. The MYL system is designed for users to use anytime and anywhere. As long as you have internet access, assignments can be completed anywhere in the world.
Q: How do I check my progress?
A: Individual users can check their progress at any time during the course by logging into the MYL system. Corporate Clients will be sent a monthly progress report for all users in the company. Our system will also send you a reminder if you have not submitted any work to us for a week.
Q: What if I cannot complete all the assignments by the 3-month deadline?
A: Normally, we cannot issue a certificate to users who do not complete the course within the deadline. However, in special circumstances we will consider extending the deadline if notice is given in advance.
