The marketing staff has an important role to develop a company since they are responsible for finding customers and promoting company’s products. Therefore, PT Dharma Medipro whose customers are foreigners requires its marketing staff to improve their English by providing them an English course. Before designing the course, needs analysis was conducted through questionnaires that were distributed to the marketing staff and an interview with a marketing manager to obtain more insights about marketing staff’s job descriptions. Some of the marketing staff were also interviewed. Afterwards, the results of the needs analysis were interpreted to design a syllabus for them. It is believed that the syllabus based on learners’ needs will be more effective and learners’ goal to learn English can be achieved as well. The results indicate that the participants need to improve all skills, particularly speaking and listening. Hence, the proposed syllabus combines structure, functions and situations relevant for the marketing staff of PT Dharma Medipro.</p><p><strong>Key</strong><strong> </strong><strong>words: marketing staff, ESP, needs analysis, syllabus design</strong></p>

The present research aims at identifying the way teachers in the Greek private sector become aware of their students’ needs and how they implement this knowledge in course and syllabus design. More specifically, teachers’ beliefs on the role and effectiveness of needs analysis in course and syllabus design were explored through both qualitative and quantitative research methods. The reason for conducting a study of this kind and caliber is the fact that syllabuses are mainly test-oriented within the context of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) in private institutes in Greece, as obtaining certificates is the primary goal, and teachers are asked to align courses and syllabuses to their students’ needs. The findings revealed that teachers acknowledge the significance of needs analysis and implement their findings in course design. They also revealed the methods they use in order to become aware of their students’ needs. These results will benefit EFL teachers who want to maximize their potential and facilitate their students’ learning.
