What is IELTS?
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is the most widely recognised English language test in the world. IELTS is accepted by over 12,000 organisations in more than 140 countries and is developed by some of the world's leading experts in language assessment.
You can take IELTS to:
- Apply to a university or higher education institution for a course taught in English in any country worldwide.
- Spend a short period of studying abroad.
- Work in a professional organisation that requires advanced English language proficiency.
- Immigrate to an English-speaking country such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand.
Which IELTS test is right for me?
There are two types of the IELTS test available - IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training
- IELTS Academic: It measures if your English language proficiency level is suitable for an academic environment. The test reflects aspects of academic language and assesses whether you are ready to begin training or a course of study in English.
- IELTS General Training: It measures English language knowledge in a practical, everyday context. The test tasks reflect real-life situations in social or workplace settings.
