Business Benchmark

Business Benchmark is a Business English course for BEC or BULATS and can also be used independently of these exams for general Business English courses.

Business Benchmark is a three-level Business English course for BEC or BULATS exams, which can also be used for general Business English courses. Business Benchmark helps students get ahead fast with their Business English vocabulary and skills and gives them grammar practice in business contexts. It also helps students prepare for an internationally recognised Cambridge ESOL Business English exam, using real exam papers from Cambridge ESOL. Teachers can choose from the BEC edition or the BULATS edition at the right level for their students. The BULATS editions are also accompanied by a CD-ROM containing a complete BULATS test supplied by Cambridge ESOL, so students can practise for the BULATS Computer Test.
