News Overview Cambridge English Exams

One of the Swiss Exams´ goals is to help teachers, discuss with them the crucial topics they might be solving and provide them with relevant answers. This is exactly the reason why we conduct our webinars for you. In the first half of this year, we had a number of such online events. Did you miss any of them? See the recordings.

Cambridge Business English Certificates (BEC) will reach the end of their shelf life in June 2024. But don't worry, we have you covered. You can reuse materials and experiences from teaching BEC.

With the discontinuation of the Cambridge BEC exams, we have to look at alternatives for our learners. In this webinar series we will have a look at 3 alternatives – IELTS, Linguaskill and Cambridge Main Suite Exams.
