What we offer

Digital skills assessment

Our Digital Framework for Language Teachers defines the digital skills that teachers need in order to help them, and their language learners, to benefit from new technologies.

Test my Digital Skills, a self-evaluation tool, can transform the way we embed the Digital Framework, enabling teachers to understand where their skills lie, to select areas for professional development and to re-evaluate skills as they progress. This tool not only helps train individual teachers, it also generates real-time data for institutions and policymakers to analyse skills levels across cohorts.

Diagnostic testing platform

Diagnostic testing can generate invaluable data about the strengths and needs of learners at individual, class or larger cohort level. It can help when deciding which areas of language or skills to prioritise, and help ensure that teachers spend time on the things that learners need most. We can work with you to develop and embed diagnostic testing in your learning ecosystem.

Digital learning strategy

We can support you in the development and design of a digital teaching and learning strategy for English language education. The strategy would seek to establish key digital teaching and learning goals as well as success indicators that can be monitored over time.

Digital learning platform and resources

We have developed a range of digital resources, apps and products that can support teachers and learners, and we are able to offer off-the-shelf solutions or work in close collaboration with you to create bespoke resources. We can also work with you to provide a customisable, co-branded website of curated learning resources.

Massive open online courses (MOOCs)

We have numerous ready-made MOOCs in English language teaching that you can use straight away, or we can develop a course specifically tailored to your context. We can also provide you with training programmes on how to develop and deliver your own MOOCs.
