Pearson Test of English — PTE exam is a unit of the Pearson PLC group, dedicated to assessing the English language usage of non-native English speakers of different ages, with various aims and levels. There are 3 main types of Pearson tests: PTE Academic, PTE General and PTE Young Learners.

These examinations are designed to reward positive achievement in English language learning. They integrate all four skills (Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing) and focus on assessing the ability of communicating in English, rather than test-taking skills. PTE General Certificates do not expire. English language learners are encouraged to seek opportunities to practice the language and confirm their progress regularly.
