NEW! The extended list for the results of the Cambridge ESOL exams recognised at the Baccalaureate.
The three BEC exams test English language ability used in international business.
BEC certificates are internationally recognised qualifications that can help you show that you have learned English to an appropriate standard and can use it in a professional context.
BEC Preliminary - Council of Europe Framework level B1
BEC Preliminary (same level as PET) is suitable for people in the work force who have started learning English later in life. It is also designed to encourage development towards BEC Vantage.
BEC Vantage - Council of Europe Framework level B2
BEC Vantage (same level as FCE) is aimed at people working or preparing to work in a range of business fields, from general office work to production and financial services.
BEC Higher - Council of Europe Framework level C1
Learners at BEC Higher level (same level as the CAE) will be expected to use English regularly in their jobs and to engage in extended conversation, contribute effectively to meetings and seminars, write reports, understand most correspondence, articles and other materials, use the telephone for most purposes and negotiate successfully in most situations.
