New EPA in Africa
New EPA contract signed for French speaking African countries.
ETS Global B.V is happy to announce the signature on June 28, 2017 of a new EPA contract with EMGS Group covering a significant number of French speaking African countries.
The African continent is increasingly known for its potential. It is a large and diverse market which needs a local approach. The new EPA agreement represents a significant step for ETS Global to strengthen its strategic planning in this region as it allows EMGS Group to extend ETS’s products and services presence in Africa by promoting the TOEFL® Family of Assessments, the TOEIC® Programme and the TFI™ test in Benin, Gabon, Cameroon, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Senegal, Togo, Chad and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
In September 2016, both ETS Global and EMGS Group joined the “Rencontres Africa 2016”, the most important business-related event dedicated to Africa in France, with 29 African countries represented. This event, during which ETS Global promoted the TOEIC® range of products and the WorkFORCE® Assessment Solutions, was a unique opportunity for ETS Global staff and EMGS to network with a significant number of “Afro Optimistic” companies looking for sustainable growth development.
As of today, the African continent plays an important role in the world’s economy and the major challenge consists in attracting and retaining talents that local companies need to run and grow their businesses. Being a company which mission is to advance quality and equity in education by providing fair and valid academic and business assessments, we could make the difference and create various opportunities for the local population
EMGS Group was founded in 2006 with the aim of providing assessment and training consultancy services to the French speaking countries in Africa. Over the years, EMGS Group built strong relations with private companies, academic institutions and governmental bodies. EMGS Group will organise its first test session this September in Senegal.
