What is IELTS?

IELTS is the International English Language Testing System. It measures ability to communicate in English across all four language skills – listening, reading, writing and speaking – for people who intend to study or work where English is the language of communication. More than 6,000 education institutions, faculties, government agencies and professional organisations around the world recognise IELTS scores as a trusted and valid indicator of ability to communicate in English. The test is taken every year across 120 countries, and is one of the fastest growing English language tests in the world, and sets the standard in integrity, research and innovation. You can prepare for this exam at the DLTC and then sit the exam at UCD University College Dublin (the main provider of IELTS exams in Dublin). Unlike other Cambridge exams, there is an exam available approximately every 2 or 4 weeks - so you can take the exam when you want!
