What is IELTS
The International English Language Testing system (IELTS) is an
internationally owned and globally recognized direct English language assessment
of the highest quality and integrity, readily available throughout the world. It
measures the language ability of people who wish to study or work in an
environment where English is the language of conversation. There are two
versions of the test - Academic and General training. Those who desire
university entrance take the Academic Version and those who are looking to
immigrate to an English-speaking country typically sit the General Training
module.
IELTS is accepted as proof of English ability by a majority of higher learning
institutions in Australia, Canada, UK, Ireland, New Zealand and a large number
of universities and colleges in the USA. It is also used by a number of
professional bodies and governments worldwide.
