Sinopsis:Becoming Equipped to Communicate (BEC) is a culture and language learning program. Its purpose is to equip people to communicate fluently and at a deep level in cross-cultural situations. BEC is a program designed specifically to lead learners, as they progress through the Levels with their associated activities, into broader and deeper relationships and deeper levels of community involvement. Toward the end of Level 4, people who have followed the program will have developed quite a few deeper relationships in their new community as a normal part of their process of learning. In this sense, BEC is not just a language learning program, it is a program in which people will become a normal part of the life of the community, and will learn to function in their new community - to speak, to listen, to interact in natural ways and to take part in people's lives.
