Cambridge University Press and Assessment launches healthcare-specific LEARNING RESOURCES to aid health professionals in India for Occupational English Test (OET)

20th March 2023, India: Cambridge University Press and Assessment India (CUP&A) announced its latest healthcare-specific offerings to aid nurses and doctors in their Occupational English Test (OET) preparation and enhance their healthcare-specific English language skills. These programs include the OET Trainer for Nursing and Medicine, Upskill for Healthcare, and the Cambridge Health Care Pathway. All these programs will enable the healthcare professional fraternity who wishes to practice in an English-speaking environment to take the OET test and pursue their dreams of migrating to a country of their choice.

The OET Trainer for Nursing and Medicine (two separate titles) has been developed for nurses and doctors, respectively. It contains six authentic practice tests for the OET exam, covering the four papers or sub-tests that form the complete exam: reading, listening, speaking, and writing. In addition, the company announced the launch of Upskill for Healthcare. This innovative mobile-first assessment provides a multilevel healthcare contextual assessment suitable for domestic employability, foundation programs, and an indicator of readiness for OET test prep.

CUP&A has partnered with Ebek, a leading organization in educational publishing services, in operation for over 40 years to launch the Cambridge Health Care Pathway: English and Communication Skills for Nursing, an integrated learning and assessment program. This program includes a diagnostic test at the beginning of every module, print and audio student books for each of the four modules, and end-of-module assessments for modules 1, 2, and 3.

The healthcare industry in India has seen significant growth in recent years, and nursing professionals are in high demand, resulting in a substantial surge in the number of Indian nurses seeking to take the OET exam. Cambridge’s OET curriculum is developed by internal experts, and it offers a world-class OET learning experience to students aspiring to pursue a career in healthcare abroad.

 

Francesca Woodward, Global Managing Director -English, expressed her excitement about the launch of these India programs, saying, "We are thrilled to be able to provide nurses and doctors with the resources they need to succeed in their OET test prep and healthcare English language skills in the India market. There has been a rising demand for healthcare professionals worldwide, and India has produced exceptional talent in the industry. We are confident that the expertly curated programs will help aspirants achieve their goals. Our partnership with Ebek for the Cambridge Health Care Pathway will only strengthen our ability to offer high-quality resources to healthcare professionals.”
