University examinations

We organise examinations on behalf of a number of UK and international educational institutions. Exams are organised in a number of cities around China and include the following categories of examinations:

  • Course Examinations (includes re-sit and end of term exams)
  • Examinations for Distance-learning Programmes

This service saves your candidates the trouble of returning to your institutions in the UK or other countries to take these exams. Either individual candidates, the institutions or exam boards can approach us to administer these exams.
