The LanguageCert Test of English (LTE), developed by PeopleCert, is an international English language certification recognised for its alignment with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), covering levels from A1 to C2. Designed to assess listening, reading, and writing skills, it is particularly well-suited for both professional and academic contexts. In France, the LTE is officially recognised by France Compétences, making it eligible for funding through the Compte Personnel de Formation (CPF). Internationally, the LTE is regulated by Ofqual in the United Kingdom and is recognised by public and private institutions in over 60 countries. Thanks to its flexibility (online testing with remote proctoring or at an approved test center), quick results (within 2 working days), and global recognition, the LTE is a reliable and efficient solution to certify one’s English level. The test is valid for life.
