Such
outcomes may include attainment of a nationally recognised language qualification.
Academic qualifications are rarely appropriate for business learners; there are
a number of suitable assessments and your provider should be able to advise on
them. Two of the best known are the OCR Certificate in Business Language Competence
and the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) business language assessments.
Both are available at various levels, from beginners upwards. Providers may also
structure their training to conform to the National
Language Standards, the nationally recognised benchmark for vocational language
learning.
European
Language Portfolio
The UK European Language Portfolio (ELP) for adults
was developed by CILT, the National Centre for Languages, to provide an attractive,
portable and motivating way for the individual learner to maintain an up-to-date
record of their language learning experience and to track their changing levels
of performance. Your course provider may offer this, or you can obtain it directly
from CILT,
the National Centre for Languages.
