For schools & higher education

Make progress visible.

Make the development of professional English visible, from admission to graduation. Cambridge New Linguaskill offers schools and organisations a flexible way to measure and certify English from B1 to C2.

Professional English is part of business education.

Within business education, English language proficiency serves several functions: as an admission requirement, as the language of instruction in international programmes, as part of professional development, or as an explicit learning outcome.

What connects these applications is the international context for which schools and organisations prepare their students. In that context, professional English is not a standalone subject but an essential skill for presenting, negotiating, reporting, collaborating and leading.

The question is not whether English matters. The question is how you make the outcome visible.

From admission to international career.

01

Admission

Assess

Establish the starting level objectively.

02

Development

Develop

Support development with focus and measure again.

03

Graduation

Certify

Certify the final level achieved independently.

04

Career

Prove

Take verifiable proof to employers and further education.

A measurement at admission shows where a student starts. A new measurement later in the programme shows where the student stands. Because the results are reported on the same Cambridge English Scale, progression can be followed clearly.

Illustrative example. The two measurement moments make development visible; both results are reported on the same Cambridge English Scale.
