What it is

What Linguaskill Business proves about you

Linguaskill Business measures exactly the language that counts at work: correspondence, meetings, presentations, negotiations. Each person receives a CEFR level from B1 to C2 per skill — comparable and documented.

HR departments also receive a group report showing the spread across teams and sites. We go through it with you and compare it against the requirements of each role.
