Continuity and Innovation: Revising the Cambridge Proficiency in English
Examination 1913-2002. This volume documents in some detail the most
recent revision of the Certificate in Proficiency in English (CPE) which
took place from 1991 to 2002. CPE is the oldest of the Cambridge suite
of English as Foreign Language (EFL) examinations and was originally
introduced in 1913. Since that time it has been regularly revised and
updated to bring it into line with current thinking in language
teaching, Applied Linguistics and language testing theory and practice.
