IELTS (the International English Language Testing System) is the world’s most popular English language test for work, study and migration. More than 11,000 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 recognized 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.
