Business Chinese Test


A Lecture on Business Chinese (2)

Have you ever heard of the BCT ( Business Chinese Test )? The new BCT, as an international, standardized test of Chinese language proficiency, focuses on assessing non-native Chinese speakers' abilities to use the Chinese language in real business or common working environments and evaluating the language tasks they are able to complete. It aims to provide references for companies to recruit and select employees, for schools and training institutions to organize teaching activities, and for learners to evaluate themselves.
