Pearson opens bookings for new PTE Core English proficiency test for Canadian economic migration visa purposes

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 31st January 2024: Pearson, the world’s leading learning company, today announced that bookings are now open for PTE Core, its newest English language proficiency test. PTE Core received approval from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) last year and can now be taken to provide proof of English language proficiency for the purposes of permanent economic immigration to Canada or Canadian citizenship. The first PTE Core tests can be taken from February 12 onwards.

PTE Core is a new addition to the Pearson Test of English portfolio, sharing many of the unique characteristics of PTE Academic. It is a two-hour, computer-based exam taken in a test centre environment that tests four key English language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The key difference is that PTE Core is relevant for the vocational test taker, designed with a real-life, non-academic focus. It was created to meet Canada’s specific migration needs and the IRCC’s language proficiency requirements but could be used to assess the English proficiency of vocational test takers in any country.

How the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″ Unlocks Creativity: A Tablet that Transforms into an Art Studio

How the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″ Unlocks Creativity: A Tablet that Transforms into an Art Studio

Technology has always influenced art. Those early scribbles on stone walls capture the primitive beginnings of an impulse as old as humanity itself – the desire to create. Painting has come a long way from scribbling primitive cave drawings with sticks and stones. As materials advanced from stone and twigs to brushes and paints, artists gained new and better ways to express their vision. There is no reason to think that we have reached the endpoint. In fact, art is on the cusp of a digital renaissance.

For millennia, paints, papers, and canvases chained the artistic process to studios and workshops. But now, you can create art on the go much more easily with easy-to-pack lightweight tablets. At the tap of a finger, stroke of a stylus, you can sketch, paint and actualise creative vision from anywhere inspiration strikes.

Brushstrokes with an Authentic Feel

An ultra-slim tablet that transforms into a portable art studio, that’s the best way to describe the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″. It weighs merely 580g[1] and measures just 5.5mm in thickness. If you are an artist, you will love the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″. And it has a lot to do with the HUAWEI M-Pencil (3rd generation) that comes with the tablet. Featuring NearLink technology, the HUAWEI M-Pencil (3rd generation) is the first in the tablet industry to offer 10,000+ pressure sensitivity levels[2]. It effortlessly captures every detail of your creative vision. The stylus comes with a transparent nib that is specifically designed for drawing.
