Key Features:

  • A Student’s Book and eBook with thought-provoking images and texts and engaging video, designed to generate an emotional response; all helping teachers to deliver motivating and memorable lessons.
  • Reliable, accurate and meaningful tests provided by the world leaders in language assessment. The End-of-unit tests, mid- and end-of-course competency tests and a personalized CEFR test report all provide reliable information on progress with language skills.
  • The Cambridge Life Competencies Framework (CLCF) has been developed to provide clarity on the range of life skills that can be integrated in English language programmes. Empower integrates these necessary life skills for work and higher education throughout the course. Evidence of this can be found in the mapping documents created for each level.
  • All digital content is in one place on our mobile-friendly ‘Cambridge One’ digital learning environment. Teachers and students can access a range of activities, resources and tools, plus an eBook version of the Student’s Book, all of which are compatible with mobile devices as well as desktop/laptop computers. Tests are designed for use on a desktop/laptop.
