Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE Academic) delivers real-life measures of test takers' English language ability to universities, higher education institutions, government departments and professional associations requiring academic-level English.
PTE Academic is robustly aligned with the Common European Framework (CEF), the worldwide benchmark for language ability. The framework was developed by the Council of Europe to enable language learners, teachers, universities or potential employers to compare and relate language qualifications by level. So with PTE Academic, institutions can be confident that they are getting accurate and proven measures of test takers' language ability.
Pearson is developing PTE Academic to fulfill the need for an English language proficiency test, that will more accurately measure the communication skills of international students in an academic environment.
