About

Discover innovative methods for tailoring learning paths to meet the competency objectives of Business English learners, utilizing the CEFR and GSE, two renowned tools in ELT. Pearson’s Global Scale of English (GSE) facilitates curriculum, courseware, and assessment strategies, harmonizing with the universally accepted Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Educators can leverage both tools to refine their approach and establish precise, measurable learning objectives within language proficiency levels. Join us as we explore how Business English instructors can synchronize CEFR levels with GSE competencies, crafting learning paths that equip corporate language learners with the specific skills essential for thriving in today’s professional landscape.
