International English Learning Testing Systems

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a globally recognized test designed to assess the English language proficiency of non-native speakers. It is widely used for academic, professional, and immigration purposes, providing a reliable measure of a candidate's ability to understand and communicate in English across four key language skills: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. IELTS offers two test formats: the Academic module and the General Training module. The Academic module is intended for those applying to higher education institutions or professional registration, while the General Training module is typically used for immigration and employment purposes. The test is scored on a band scale from 0 to 9, with each band corresponding to a specific level of English proficiency. The listening and speaking sections are the same for both modules, while the reading and writing sections differ according to the test type. The IELTS exam is recognized by over 10,000 organizations worldwide, including universities, employers, and governments. It is offered in more than 140 countries, and the results are typically valid for two years. IELTS provides a fair and accurate assessment of English skills, helping individuals achieve their academic, professional, and personal goals.
