The Saudi Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC) and the Arab League Educational, Cultural and Scientific Organisation (ALECSO) have signed an agreement to boost Arabic language learning standards and cooperate with each other on the IQ-scale AlifYa Scale specifically tailored for Arab societies.
This will help to develop guidelines for Arabic language learning standards and their ensuing implementation and evaluation within the framework of general education, including designing the content and activities of training programmes to build capacity in the field of preparing and assessing Arabic language teaching.
