The British Council has offered an English language proficiency assessment for 16,000 youths of the ‘Establishment of Sheikh Kamal IT Training and Incubation Centre Project (2nd Revised)’ under the Hi-Tech Park Authority since 2019.
 Recently, the British Council has delivered 5,400 FETs in eight locations nationwide.
These tests have been instrumental in evaluating the English skills of the candidates and employees, thereby significantly enhancing their professional careers, said the press release.Â
The FET assesses lower English levels, making it more appropriate for candidates who only require entry-level English, added the press release.
