Michigan Language Assessment has partnered with Prometric, a global leader in technology-enabled testing and assessment solutions, to administer the Michigan English Test as an online, digital exam beginning this October.
It is hoped that by utilising Prometric’s remote test-delivery platform ProProctor™ and its testing network, Michigan Language Assessment will be able to offer people the opportunity to take the MET in their homes on any day of the year, from “almost anywhere in the world”.
Michigan Language Assessment is itself a joint venture between the University of Michigan and Cambridge Assessment English.
“The partnership with Prometric is a big step in the evolution of our organisation,” said Sharon Harvey, CEO of Michigan Language Assessment.
“We’ve been providing secure, reliable, and trusted English exams for nearly seventy years; we’re committed to helping people achieve their education and career goals.
