How we can help

We work with ministries of education, education institutions and employers all over the world to help improve English language learning, teaching and assessment. We work in partnership with policymakers and educationalists in country to deliver positive educational impact, in line with national requirements. We develop long-term partnerships, taking time to understand strategic objectives and challenges, the strengths of existing systems, and help you deliver improvements with lasting benefits.
