All Berlitz Raters are native-fluent in the target language, and are experienced in leading the Berlitz Test of Speaking Skills in a procedural and professional manner. Through a 20-minute series of questions, prompts and tasks — all set within a client relations context — the Berlitz rater assesses proficiency levels in the areas of:
-
Fluency
-
Grammatical Accuracy
-
Linguistic Range
-
Phonological Control
The results are based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) — one of the most widely used and recognized language proficiency scales in the world — and are easily interpreted to determine employee or applicant qualifications.
Berlitz Testing personnel are ready to assist clients with test scheduling and administration. We will work with your company to establish a secure testing environment on your premises to ensure smooth, fair and proctored test administration. At the completion of a given examination, results will be provided within 48 hours to assist in making informed and expedient personnel decisions.
All tests are recorded and a quality control process involving double rating is employed to improve reliability.
