What is IELTS?
IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is the world’s most popular English language test, measuring the language proficiency of people who want to study or work in environments where English is the main language of communication. More than 2 million IELTS tests are taken each year.
Developed by some of the world’s leading experts in language assessment, it covers all of the English skills — reading, writing, listening and speaking, in all standard varieties of English, including North American.
The most effective way of testing English conversation skills is face-to-face. IELTS is the most widely accepted English language test with a one-on-one speaking test to assess English language communication skills.
There are two test versions:
- IELTS Academic measures English language proficiency needed for an academic, higher learning environment
- IELTS General Training measures proficiency in a practical, everyday context.
It has an excellent international reputation, and is accepted by over 10,000 organisations worldwide, including schools, universities, employers, immigration authorities and professional bodies.
