DUBAI, United Arab Emirates--(BUSINESS WIRE
<https://www.businesswire.com/>)--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.

Nassim has worked in education for 15 years and joins Cambridge Assessment
English from Pearson, where he was Head of Arabian Gulf and Levant, as well
as the Regional Portfolio Director of Pearson Qualifications International
across the Middle East, Africa, and the Caribbean. Nassim has an MBA and an
MSc in Information Systems. He is passionate about social and economic
development, both of which benefit from improved education systems and
better-equipped organisations and leaders. Nassim’s current role entails
supporting our Cambridge English authorised centres’ network from a
business development and marketing perspective and shaping the strategy to
move forward across the Central Region.

Ramiz has been working with Cambridge English for the past two years and
has been responsible for increasing the number of candidates taking
Cambridge Assessment English exams in several key countries in the region.
He has extensive experience in the field of educational qualifications and
worked in 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 relations, 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
Communications. 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 and language policy
review to professional development of teachers and other English language
consultation services.

Ramiz and Nassim join Regional Director Liam Vint as the senior management
team of Cambridge Assessment English’s Central Region, which covers the
Middle East, Africa and South Asia as well as Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, the
Caucasus and Central Asia. The regional team is responsible for helping
Cambridge Assessment English to deliver on its mission to help people learn
English and prove their skills to the world.
