Pearson has announced it will partner with overseas education consulting company, JJL, in China to promote its secure Pearson PTE Academic test. The company said JJL was the largest and most prestigious student recruitment agent in China, and the partnership will allow its 30,000 clients to have on-demand access to PTE Academic testing.
The on-demand testing service that JJL will provide can cater to requests for additional testing sessions so that Chinese students looking to study abroad can take the test even when advertised testing sessions are full. Pearson PTE results are accepted by the UK and Australian government for visa verification purposes.
“As the leading student consultancy in China, JJL is the perfect partner for Pearson,” said Emma Stubbs, Senior Vice President of Language Testing, Pearson. “With mutual aims to develop national education and international reach, both brands are perfectly placed to position PTE Academic as the number one test for Chinese students wishing to study abroad.”
JJL will promote PTE Academic and provide consultancy for the test in all 21 branches
JJL will promote PTE Academic and provide consultancy for the test in all their 21 branches across China. JJL has partnerships with 1400 institutions across 23 countries. It will also distribute the PTE Academic Official Guide – a resource for helping students prepare for the test.
Pearson claims it offers the most convenient test in the academic preparation market. Students complete all components of PTE Academic within three hours and typically receive their results within five business days. “We offer an English language test that is fast, reliable and widely recognised, meeting all the needs of Chinese students,” said Stubbs.
