This will allow customers to register with Y-Axis and take tests in Pearson’s modern, purpose-built facilities in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Commenting on the partnership, Ipek Aydin, Head of PTE for the Middle East & North Africa, said, “We at Pearson believe that international education is a holistic ecosystem, one where different stakeholder has equally significant roles: Universities, Agents, Language preparation centers, and High stakes test providers, all with a common goal: to help students or migrants achieve their life goals.

"Our efforts, in line with Pearson’s mission of adding life to lifetime learning, are aimed at empowering learners to prove their English language skills, gain confidence in using the language as a communication medium and achieve their dream of studying or working abroad.”

PTE is excited to partner with one of the leading immigration and visa organisations in the UAE. Y-Axis has proven to focus on quality service to its clients and with Y-Axis, PTE will be providing learning support to its clients which will include PTE training and some test prep resources, which are only available to PTE partners, and we believe these services will help candidates in their preparation journey.

“PTE has been growing substantially across the globe, and we see the reflection of this in the Middle East region as well. We believe that this collaboration with Y-Axis in the UAE will bring the much-needed momentum for aspirants and enable further growth for our business and partners,” added Ipek.

PTE is becoming increasingly popular among individuals who plan to migrate or study abroad. The computer-based exam emphasises day-to-day usage of English, rather than high-level English. A candidate is tested on how well he or she understands the English language on a day-to-day basis. As a computer-based test, the PTE results are usually available within five business days of the test date. In some cases, candidates receive their results within 3 days, while in others, they receive their results the same day.

Speaking at the launch, Clint Khan, Director of Y-Axis Middle East DMCC, said, “We are currently the market leader in immigration solutions. One of the key reasons why our clients choose us over our competitors is because our focus remains to be uniquely relevant to our customers. Our collaboration with Pearson helps us stay in touch with customer needs. Y-Axis is now the registration center for PTE. We are a one-stop shop for our clients. We are the only immigration company in the GCC that has a tie-up with Pearson to take PTE exam registrations at our prime location with easy access to public transportation.”

Test takers who choose the option of computer-delivered PTE can access support materials with which they can prepare for taking PTE on a computer.
