The problem:
International companies often face the challenge of assessing English language proficiency quickly and efficiently. This need arises from a multinational workforce and the need to standardise processes.
Solution:
Implementation of an automated system for assessing language skills according to the CEFR international assessment scale for employee assessment, with recommendations for adjusting training programmes based on this data.
Client
An international provider of business solutions in energy, mobility and value-added services.
Task from the client company
Standardise the assessment and optimise the time spent on the annual assessment of a multinational team (Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Ukraine).
Solution
✅ A company account with different levels of access (for managers and HR) and separate accounts for each employee were created.
✅ The Placement Test Detailed was chosen to determine the level of grammar and vocabulary (General English test area).
✅ Implementation of a reporting system to further assess and track the performance of the company’s employees.
Testing process
Testing format: The Placement Test was conducted in an online format on the T2S platform.
Saving results: All test results were saved in the personal accounts of each employee.
Data accessibility: The HR team had instant access to the test results of each employee and analytical reporting.
Process management: The process and communication with respondents was managed by a T2S support manager.
Support and advice: The T2S team acted as the customer’s right hand, providing effective support and knowledge to save the HR department time.
