IELTS (the International English Language Testing System) is the world’s most popular English language test for work, study and migration. More than 10,000 organisations trust IELTS as a reliable indicator of true to life ability to communicate in English.
IELTS assesses a test taker’s English language proficiency across four skills – Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. Delivered on either a computer or paper, IELTS is the only high-stakes language test recognised for migration across Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. With a focus on human conversations, IELTS was a pioneer of four-skills English language testing more than 30 years ago. IELTS continues to set the standard for English language testing today. IDP has more than 1,400 test locations across 56 countries. This includes more than 260 computer-delivered IELTS centres.
