International Globish Certification Test

The Globish Foundation is beta testing its International Globish Certification Test through its Affiliates, and will be working with Japan Globish Institute for that purpose.  The test will be given completely in Globish, in exactly the same manner for all international students of Globish.  Students passing the test will be able to operate at the B-1 and B-2 levels of language behavior, as dictated by the Council of Europe’s Framework of Reference for languages. The originator of this unique test is David Hon, who was invited to be a TED speaker regarding his breakthrough concepts on other kinds of standardized testing, in computerized surgical simulation and tests which used tactile graphics and other realistic contexts.

Note: the test does not work properly in IE8 becuse IE8 is not compliant with the browser standards. Other free browsers are OK.
