IELTS
What is IELTS?
The International English Language Testing System, or IELTS, is the most reliable English language exam in the world. More than 25 years ago, IELTS was one of the first to introduce the four skills component of English language testing, and it still sets the benchmark for English language assessments today. IELTS is recognized by more than 9,000 organizations worldwide as proof of English language competency. Over 2.2 million exams were administered worldwide last year. IELTS is acknowledged as a safe, accurate, and trustworthy measure of real-world English communication skills for professional, immigration, and educational purposes. With more than 1,000 test centers and locations in more than 140 countries, IELTS is jointly owned by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia, and Cambridge English Language Assessment.
Who is it for?
IELTS is designed for anyone who needs to prove their English language proficiency for education, work, or migration. It is ideal for students planning to study at universities and colleges in English-speaking countries, professionals seeking international licensing or career opportunities, and individuals applying for permanent residency or work visas in countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK, or the USA. IELTS is also suitable for those enrolling in vocational training programs or pursuing non-academic pathways abroad, making it a versatile and globally trusted test for academic, professional, and immigration purposes.
