(AETOSWire): New appointments by Cambridge Assessment English will enhance support for language learning and assessment across a region which stretches from Africa to the Middle East, and South Asia as well as Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, the Caucasus and Central Asia. Based in the Dubai offices of Cambridge University’s assessment arm, the newly assigned Regional Commercial Head Nassim Abu Ershaed and Strategic Development Head Ramiz Haddadin will work with a wide range of stakeholders in education, government and commercial organisations to offer the benefits of internationally recognised language qualifications to a growing number of learners throughout the region.

He has extensive experience in the field of educational qualifications and worked the USA, Jordan, and Iraq for ten years in the university sector as a university instructor and certified trainer, qualifications and assessment expert and ELT specialist. He also has substantial experience in international relation, communications, the charity and NGO sector and the petrochemical industry. He is a holder of a bachelor’s degree in English and German, and two master’s degrees in American Studies and in Communication. Ramiz’s role involves supporting Cambridge’s work with Ministries of Education and other government departments throughout the region across the Central Region from curriculum review, language policy review to professional development of teachers and other English language consultation services.
