Text and translation

Dear Ms Karim, I am writing to ask about your upcoming training programme. Our team is interested in the workshop on customer communication. Could you confirm the dates and the maximum number of participants? We would also like to know whether the materials are available in advance. A reply by Thursday would help us organise our staff schedule. Thank you for your time; I look forward to hearing from you.

السيدة كريم المحترمة، أكتب للاستفسار عن برنامجكم التدريبي القادم. يهتم فريقنا بورشة التواصل مع العملاء. هل يمكن تأكيد المواعيد والحد الأقصى لعدد المشاركين؟ نود أيضًا معرفة ما إذا كانت المواد متاحة مسبقًا. سيساعدنا الرد بحلول الخميس في تنظيم جدول الموظفين. شكرًا لوقتكم؛ أتطلع إلى ردكم.
