2013 is the 100 year anniversary of Cambridge English exams. Coinciding with this important milestone, we are also changing our name to Cambridge English Language Assessment.
100 years of Cambridge English exams
The first Cambridge English: Proficiency exam was taken by three people in 1913. Now, over 4 million candidates a year take Cambridge English exams around the world.
This enormous growth reflects how English has evolved into a key skill, and how our exams focus on the real-life communications skills candidates need for success at university, in the workplace and for immigration.
We are celebrating our centenary with a programme of events around the world and a new book, Cambridge English Exams - the first hundred years.
