Business English Language Testing Service (BULATS)

BULATS is a service designed to test the language of employees, trainees and job applicants who need to use English as a foreign language in their work.

This service will provide you with the following:

  • relevant, useful and reliable language tests in work contexts
  • on-demand availability
  • test administration to suit the client company's individual requirements
  • rapid turnaround of test results
  • information to help with the interpretation of test results
  • advice to companies on appropriate strategies for assessing language needs (language auditing), training and language testing

What form does the test take?

BULATS offers the following four types of test:

  1. The Computer Test
  2. The Standard Test (Reading and Listening)
  3. The Speaking Test
  4. The Writing Test

Each of the above tests can be used independently of the others, or they can be used in various combinations. This principle of flexibility allows BULATS to customise the service for different situations.

Who is BULATS for?

The service is designed for companies and organisations that have any of the following language needs:

  • to evaluate the language skills of staff
  • to place learners on suitable courses for language training
  • to screen learners who are unsuitable for the training courses provided
  • to evaluate language training given
  • to recommend suitable standard examinations for learners
  • to provide testing support for language audits.

When is BULATS available?

BULATS is an on-demand test. You choose the date and time (subject to examiner availability). We just need you to confirm your chosen date five working days in advance.
