The Business English Certificates - BEC from Cambridge ESOL have been created specifically for individual learners who wish to obtain a business-related English language qualification. By taking an internationally recognised business qualification like BEC, you can show that you have learned English to an appropriate standard and can use it in a professional context.

BEC is available at three levels: BEC Preliminary, BEC Vantage and BEC Higher all in set of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). They are internationally recognised qualifications that show you have learned English to an appropriate standard and can use it in a professional context. BEC is suitable for people aged 16 and over who are either preparing for a career in business or already in work.

These certificates never expire, and will not need to be renewed — they are an achievement for life.
