Overview

What the test is

IELTS General Training assesses English as it is used day to day. It shows how well you can get your meaning across in social settings and in the workplace.

The Self Prep package lets you prepare independently, in your own time, with access valid for 180 days.

Why it is important

If you are planning to emigrate to an English-speaking country, or to join a work-experience or training scheme, this is the version you will usually need. It measures functional English – reading, writing, listening and speaking – in practical, everyday contexts.

Why you might take it

You need to meet language requirements for a work visa or permanent residency in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK or a similar destination.
You are applying for secondary education or a training programme that is not academic.

Who should consider it

Those hoping to settle or find work overseas.
Candidates for vocational courses or secondary school, as opposed to university.
People who must demonstrate basic to intermediate English for everyday and workplace communication.
