Trainee pilots in Saudi Arabia to take Linguaskill English test

04/12/2020

OxfordSaudia flight academy logoLinguaskill is a ground breaking online test from Cambridge Assessment English, which assesses reading, writing, listening and speaking. It uses cutting-edge artificial intelligence to produce a detailed report with results available in only 48 hours. Hundreds of institutions are now benefitting from this fast, accurate test of English.

OxfordSaudia Flight Academy trains pilots who are training for a commercial pilot licence. Their 18-month foundation programme is mandatory for all students with 10 levels focused on English, physics and maths. The academy, which works in partnership with the Oxford Aviation Academy in the UK, aims to use Linguaskill to check the progress of their students and to use it as an end of course exam when they need to achieve a high B2 or C1 score to enter ground school.

Capt. Larry Wade, Chief Executive Officer of OxfordSaudia, said:

'English language skills are important in every profession, but to become a pilot or to work in the aviation sector they are essential. We opted for Linguaskill because we felt it is the best solution to best prepare our students and gives them the opportunity to exit the programme with an excellent qualification, which is internationally recognised.

'We are delighted to be pioneers in the use of Linguaskill for training the next generation of aviation professionals and with Cambridge Assessment English and Linguaskill we’re on the right track. We are very familiar with the Cambridge resources and materials as our students already use Cambridge University Press official text books and they take maths and physics IGCSE from Cambridge Assessment International.'

The first session has taken place in Dammam on 8th November 2020.
