English level test

Find out where your team actually is

Self-assessed language level is consistently optimistic, and staffing a training programme off it is how cohorts end up two levels apart. This measures it instead.

Reviewing team assessment results

What it gives you

One link for the whole team

Send a single link. Nobody needs an account, a licence or an install, and results arrive against the names you supplied.

A distribution, not an average

The mean level of a team is a useless number. You get the spread, which is what tells you how many cohorts you actually need.

Section-level results

Reading, listening, grammar and a speaking sample scored separately β€” teams are frequently strong on reading and two levels lower on speaking.

Cohort recommendations

A suggested grouping by level and objective, so the output is a plan rather than a spreadsheet you still have to interpret.

How it runs

  1. 1

    Send us the roster

    Names and email addresses, and which teams they sit in. Nothing else is needed.

  2. 2

    People take the test

    About fifteen minutes each, at whatever time suits them, in a browser.

  3. 3

    You get the analysis

    Per-person CEFR levels, a team distribution, section breakdowns, and a recommended cohort structure.

  4. 4

    Decide what to run

    Use it with us or take it elsewhere. It is a diagnostic, not a sales gate.

What it does not do

Worth being clear, because assessments get used for things they should not be.

It is not a hiring filter

This is a placement tool for training. It is not validated for recruitment decisions, and using it that way would be unfair to candidates and legally unwise.

It is not a certificate

CEFR placement is not IELTS, TOEFL or any accredited qualification. If someone needs a certificate for a visa or a registration body, they need that exam.

Individual results are shared with the person tested as well as with you. People find out their own level either way, and a programme that starts by keeping that from them starts badly.

Send us a roster and we will get the assessment out β€” the analysis usually comes back within a week.
