Why IELTS?
It is accepted worldwide, including schools, universities, employers, immigration authorities and professional bodies.
IELTS has been developed in close consultation with academics, professional bodies and immigration authorities from around the world to fairly assess the language ability of candidates who want to study or work where English is the language of communication.
