The GETS Scale of English is a framework that
benchmarks the achievement of an individual user of English across Listening,
Reading, Writing and Speaking. It is aligned to the CEFR or the Common
European Framework of Reference for languages) levels A2 to C2. The GETS
Scale of English is developed as a ten-level framework: GETS Level 1 to Level 10.

Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.
The GETS Scale of English provides an
accurate and standardised score of an individual’s language proficiency along
with a clear description of the ability of the individual by way of ‘can-do’ statements.
