In addition, many government agencies, scholarship programs, and licensing/certification agencies use TOEFL scores to evaluate English proficiency.

And that's it... I took some of those tests and here are the results:

The Art and Science of Leadership

Leadership is one of the most important traits an engineer must have when working on any field.

Good leaders are made not born. If you have the desire and willpower, you can become an effective leader. Good leaders develop through a never ending process of self-study, education, training, and experience. In here I'm gonna publish a link to a guide that will help you through that process.

To inspire your workers into higher levels of teamwork, there are certain things you must be, know, and, do. These do not come naturally, but are acquired through continual work and study. Good leaders are continually working and studying to improve their leadership skills; they are NOT resting on their laurels.

This webpage is a very good guide for leaders! It's always good to check out how to be better everytime.
