Who is BULATS for?
BULATS is designed for organisations that need a reliable way of assessing the language ability of groups of employees or trainees who need to use a foreign language in their work.
The tests are also ideal for evaluating the language skills of students and employees on language courses or on professional/business courses where foreign language ability is an important element.
How can BULATS help you?
BULATS is useful in many contexts. The following are just a few examples.
Test Results
BULATS links directly to ALTE standards because it is produced by key members of ALTE (Association of Language Testers in Europe).
For the Online Reading & Listening test, scores are given on a standardised scale of 0-100. The test also gives scores for each section of the test. All test results are linked to ‘Can-Do’ statements which describe what candidates at a particular level are typically able to do in the language with particular reference to the workplace.
Candidates receive their results 7 working days after the test. The result will be sent by post to the address provided on the application form.
