QQ English Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; CEO: Yorimitsu Fujioka) has launched "CEST Training by QQEnglish," a speaking preparation service designed for the "Cambridge English Skills Test Business" (CEST Business) operated by the Japan English Proficiency Test Association (Eiken Foundation).
Having served as a sales agent for CEST Business, QQ English developed this program based on the test's format.
