one week training; in the next month; course vs training; right usage;

Question

Is it right sentence:

Firm is planning to send me to London for one week training in the next month.

"for one week training": I mean that duration of training is one week.

Also is there is really difference between "training" and "course" in terms of education?

Thanks

"...for a one-week training..." - rest is fine.

Maulik almost got it all correct, except it should be "a one-week training", the two words should be joined as a compound noun modifier.

A course seems to suggest the interaction between trainers and trainee takes the form of lecture, and is classroom based.

A training seems to cover that, and mamy other possibilities.

It should be 'a one-week training' as one begins with a consonant sound.
