Assessments play a critical role in training, providing a
benchmark for improvement. FuturePerfect’s programs are underpinned by
accurate and valid assessments of trainees’ language levels before,
during and after training.
FuturePerfect’s assessments go beyond other more generic
and traditional language assessments that only test grammar and
pronunciation. The sociolinguistic criteria are also tested, reinforcing
the use of the Communicative Language Teaching approach in the training
programs. The sociolinguistic criteria are very important when making
assessments of candidates working in interactive work contexts. These
criteria are discourse capability, strategic competency, interactive
capability, audience awareness, and sociolinguistic competency. |
