More access to English language exams in Russia as Cambridge ESOL expands its network
3 September 2008
Taking an internationally recognised English language exam in Russia has never been more straight-forward. The University of Cambridge ESOL examinations has recently expanded its network of exam centres in the region. There are now 25 centres operating with individual locations ranging from Murmansk to Krasnodar and St Petersburg to Krasnoyarsk.
The network of centres offer a range of Cambridge ESOL exams; one of the most popular is the First Certificate in English (FCE), a test aimed at those wanting to use English for work or study purposes. This ‘valid for life’ certificate is recognised as an English qualification by thousands of employers, universities and government departments.
Chris Scott Barrett, Development Manager at Cambridge ESOL further explains the benefits the new network of exam centres will bring:
“Since January 2008 we have established a new network of examination centres in the region to give more students the chance to take our exams. This now means a greater number can benefit from having a certificate from Cambridge ESOL.”
Some of the most recent centres that have gained approval from Cambridge ESOL to administer exams include: CET Nizhnevartovsk (Western Siberia), Benedict Kemerovo (Central Siberia) and South Urals Centre Chelyabinsk (Southern Urals).
