IELTS

The IELTS is the International English Language Testing System and it is the world’s most popular English language proficiency test for higher education and global migration with over 3 million tests taken in the last year. More than 10,000 organisations globally trust IELTS, so when you take the assessment you can be confident that it is recognised by educational institutions, employers, governments and professional bodies around the world.

How does IELTS work?

IELTS has been developed by some of the world’s leading language assessment experts and will test the full range of English skills needed for success in your new job or study placement abroad. You’ll be assessed on the following elements:

• Listening
• Reading
• Writing
• Speaking

The test is designed to reflect the sort of language spoken every day in an English-speaking country and even covers variations such as British English, American and Australian English.

If you are a health professional who wants to work in an English speaking country, you will probably need to take the IELTS Academic test. Almost all professional orders or associations will require you to get a score of 7.0 on each component, however this can vary depending on your professional order or association (pharmacists, doctors, etc).
