Pearson Language Tests is a unit of the Pearson PLC group, dedicated to assessing and validating the English language usage of non-native English speakers. The tests include the Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE Academic), the PTE General (formerly known as London Tests of English), and PTE Young Learners. These are scenario-based exams, accredited by the QCA and Ofqual, and are administered in association with Edexcel, the world’s largest academic examining body. In 2009, Pearson Language Tests created the Pearson Test of English Academic (Ref.) under endorsement from the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), the organization responsible for the GMAT. The test is scored under CEFR guidelines, and is administered through the Pearson Virtual User Environment.
