The specific equivalence levels are as follows: Elementary (level 1, level 2) of the Vietnamese foreign language proficiency framework is equivalent to level A1, level 1 of the PEIC certificate; Intermediate (level 3, level 4) is equivalent to level 2, level 3 of the PEIC certificate; Advanced (level 5, level 6) is equivalent to level 4, level 5 of the PEIC certificate.

Thus, in addition to the familiar English standards in Vietnam such as IELTS and TOEFL, the international English certificate PEIC test scores are officially used for admission and training purposes at the university level and can also be applied as English proficiency standards for students at high school and postgraduate levels.

The PEIC certificate is an international English proficiency standard that includes 4 skills (Listening - Speaking - Reading - Writing) for students and working people. The PEIC test is divided into 6 levels corresponding to the 6 levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages ​​(CEFR), helping to closely assess the ability and progress of learners through each stage of language proficiency improvement.

The PEIC certificate is issued by Pearson Education Group - the largest examination board in the UK. The PEIC exam has been widely organized in many countries around the world and this certificate is recognized by businesses, universities and government agencies in Europe, America, Asia and Africa.

The PEIC test is based on real-life language situations that are familiar to English learners and uses familiar question types that are easy for test takers to access. The PEIC test has a consistent structure across the 6 levels, helping learners become familiar with the types of exercises and build confidence in using the language naturally.
