KMT (The initials “KMT” stand for the Azeri words translated as “Communication, Culture, Technology”) was established in 1999.

KMT was establishment as the result of the outsourcing of the language training section from the HR & Training Department of a large International Oil Company. It employs the former language teaching staff of that organization with their very successful experience in teaching languages to business people since 1992.

KMT offers Russian, Azerbaijani and English Language Training for business people and members of their families at all levels in different programs.

The KMT staff use modern language teaching technologies to teach languages and the latest teaching materials. Most of the teaching materials were developed and published by KMT professionals and are specifically designed to support the language training.

At KMT languages are taught using the “Method of Active Teaching”. The method is based on the some of the most advanced methodology and research methods of proven successful intensive foreign language learning. The method takes into consideration the age of students, the lack of time that business people can dedicate to language learning, and the often irregular attendance of students at lessons due to their business trips, meetings and work pressures.

Using this method and under the guidance of qualified teachers, KMT students can achieve effective everyday communication in their foreign language study in a short period of time.

All KMT lessons include an excellent stock of handouts, books, videos, tapes and computer-assisted language learning programs.

KMT runs a course of lectures on Azerbaijan's history, culture, its customs and traditions. It helps foreigners to understand the history and culture of Azerbaijan and Baku through lectures, practical classes, excursions and Language Club activities.

The practical experience of teaching languages in the working environment has helped KMT to develop special business courses

KMT's training manuals, books and teaching technologies are presented on regular base at International conferences, seminars and workshops.

Since December 2003 KMT has become a member of the American Chamber of Commerce in Azerbaijan.
