SINGAPORE, March 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cambridge Assessment English encourages learners to attend Cambridge English Qualifications.

Imagine a world without language. Apart from being one full of grunts and growls, this world would also be filled with misunderstandings, and history has proven that the smallest misunderstandings could lead to dire consequences.
Today's world is indeed one where English has become the lingua franca, but alas, communications that are not succinct enough lead to the common misunderstandings. These issues continue to be prevalent because the English language is easy to learn but difficult to master.
Today, over 75% of employers around the world feel that English is significant in their organisation. The annual Quacquarelli Symonds Global Employee Survey revealed not only that, but that 98.5% of employers assess their prospects' English language abilities during the recruitment process. Similarly, employers see English as extremely important and many have been known to reward employees with good English language skills with higher starting salaries, faster progression through job grades and higher salary increases.
The question of credibility then arises – how does one showcase a good grasp of the English language?
Enter Cambridge English Qualifications by Cambridge Assessment English. Every learner is tested based on four basic language skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking – all of which are built into Cambridge English Qualifications and examinations.
