Mobile app Babbel, Cambridge team up for English tests
Oxford
GERMANY'S Babbel, the highest grossing maker of mobile language-learning apps, has teamed up with Cambridge University's English language certification arm to set a new, high-quality standard for digital language testing, the companies said on Wednesday.
Babbel and Cambridge English have jointly developed the test and will split revenue on what will be marketed as the "Babbel English Test", which will certify listening and reading comprehension skills in real-life, conversational situations. It tests users from level A1 (beginner) up to B2 (intermediate).
