To remedy the shortcomings of the CEFR we created a scale which more accurately reflects its origins:●It has a new way of looking at what it means to be “at a level”●It offers a finer more granular scale●It starts well below A1●It goes from 10 to 90: nobody starts at true zero and nobody is perfect●It gives us actionable data around can do descriptors

Is course agnostic
Is low stakes (not an end in itself but the beginning of a conversation and action plan)
Provides actionable data around can do statements
Is a completely adaptive test - adjusts to each individual leaner so no two test experiences are ever the same (eliminates ability to copy).
Uses fully automated computer marking for all four skills (including the productive skills - speaking and writing) which is more objective than human scorers (.97 reliability)
Provides 7 marks: Global, 4 skills, plus a grammar and vocabulary mark in seconds
Is reported on the Global Scale of English with correlations to other internationally recognized frameworks like CEFR.
