Easy-to-understand report format

The Report will show you:

your candidate’s Cambridge English Scale score for each skill tested – this allows you to quickly understand what your candidate’s level of English is
your candidates’ Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) Level for each skill tested – the CEFR is the international benchmark for describing language ability – which means you can compare Linguaskill results to international standards
an average Cambridge English Scale score and associated CEFR level, if more than one skill has been taken
an explanation of what each score means in terms of English language ability – you can see where test takers have performed well, and where they can improve
whether the candidate took the Business or General test.

You can also produce reports for individuals or groups, depending on your needs. You can produce a breakdown of scores by group and level, allowing easy comparison of ability across your whole organisation.
