The Project Achievement Tests are a set of four tests designed to assess and evaluate the level of competence that students achieved during the Project course. The tests cover reading, writing, listening and use of English. They can be used as a means of assessing students at a key stage in their education, for example at the transition from primary to secondary school or as a preparation for formal assessments.
The Book provides systematic development of students´ listening and speaking skills to meet the requirements of the revised Cambridge Proficiency exam or any other examinations at the same level.
The book is divided into two parts:
Part A consists of five complete listening tests. The recordings are based on authentic listening material and contain a variety of accents and sound effects.

This guide is designed to help anyone involved with the preparation
of language tests, and particularly those wishing to make use of the Council of
Europe's "Common European Framework of Reference for languages: Learning,
,teaching, assessment". The
aim has been to make the content of the guide relevant not only to test
constructors preparing tests in a more formal context such as state
examinations, but also to teachers working on school tests. Achieving the
correct balance in trying to meet the needs of these two groups has presented
something of a challenge; for this reason, readers are encouraged to consider
and implement the advice contained in this guide in the light of their purpose
in preparing tests and the amount of time and resources they have available.
The focus is largely on matters of process
rather than those of product, in the belief that suitable products emerge from
clear principles and well-designed processes rather than the other way round.
