IELTS - The test that opens doors

What is IELTS?

IELTS, the International English Language Testing System, is the most popular high-stakes English language test for study, work, and migration.

IELTS is jointly owned by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge Assessment English. The test conforms to the highest international standards of language assessment.

The IELTS test covers the four language skills – listening, reading, writing, and speaking. IELTS is recognised by more than 12,500 organisations in many countries, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It is also recognised by professional bodies, immigration authorities and other government agencies.

Respected and accepted world-wide, IELTS helps you boost your score and prepares you for success in the real world.

Why choose IELTS?

If you want more out of your new life abroad or are looking to build a better future, take IELTS. Success starts the moment you choose to test with the best. Backed by Cambridge English and trusted by more universities, governments and organisations than any other test. IELTS is globally recognised and accepted by leading universities, academic and professional bodies, and immigration departments of Australia, Canada, the UK, and New Zealand, making it the preferred option for anyone looking to move abroad for study, work or migration. IELTS examiners always understand you and your accent. Unlike other providers, your spoken English is assessed by a real person who understands different accents. The best opportunities for moving and living abroad start the moment you choose IELTS.

Choose the IELTS test type that matches your goals

Which test type do you take?

Where you want to study, work, or migrate to will affect which test you need to take:

For studying in higher education or seeking professional registration, you can take the IELTS Academic test.

For work or migration to an English-speaking country, you might take the

IELTS General Training test.

Make sure you visit the relevant government or institutional websites to confirm which test you need to take.
