In February 2025, Poise Nigeria proudly launched Aptis, a significant step in our commitment to empowering individuals and organizations with essential language skills. The launch event at Poise Alcove gathered distinguished guests from various sectors, including business and government, underscoring the importance of this initiative.

In today’s interconnected world, effective communication is vital for unlocking new opportunities. At Poise Nigeria, we understand that language proficiency is a critical driver of success. Aptis, a comprehensive English language assessment tool developed by the British Council, is specifically designed to enhance communication skills for both individuals and organizations.

About Aptis

Its flexible and modular design allows users to focus on specific skill sets, while fast and accurate results support informed decision-making. Furthermore, Aptis aligns with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), ensuring a reliable and comprehensive evaluation of language abilities. 

Benefits of Aptis

  • Comprehensive assessment of English language skills
  • Modular design for targeted skill development

Introducing Our Aptis Class
To facilitate familiarization with Aptis, we will host interactive introductory classes biweekly on Wednesdays. These sessions provide insights into the features and benefits of Aptis, alongside practical tips for preparing for the assessment.

Insights from the Launch Event 
In a recent feature by The Guardian, Mavis Isibor, the founder of Poise Nigeria Limited, highlighted the critical costs associated with miscommunication. Large companies may lose an average of $64.4 million annually due to these issues, while smaller businesses can suffer losses of around $450,000. During the Aptis launch in Lagos, Isibor emphasized the substantial impact of poor communication on businesses, describing Aptis as “a powerful catalyst for transformation.” She reiterated that the tool facilitates a thorough evaluation of English language skills, which is crucial for effective business communication. 

To combat these challenges, Poise Nigeria now provides the Aptis Assessment—a forward-thinking solution for evaluating English language proficiency for businesses, government agencies, and individuals alike.

At Poise Nigeria, we are dedicated to equipping individuals and organizations with the vital language skills required in today’s global marketplace. With Aptis, we empower our clients to communicate more effectively, unlocking a wealth of opportunities for growth and success.
