Academic or General Training?
IELTS is available in two modules – Academic and General Training.
The Academic Module assesses whether a candidate is ready to study or train in the medium of English at an undergraduate or postgraduate level. Admission to undergraduate and postgraduate courses may be based on the results of these Module tests; you need to check with the institution asking for the IELTS test about the required score.
The General Training Module emphasises basic survival skills in a broad social and educational context. General Training is suitable for candidates who are going to English-speaking countries to complete their secondary education, to undertake work experience or training programmes below degree level, or for immigration purposes for Australia, Canada and New Zealand.

IELTS tests are available on up to 48 fixed dates a year. Tests are normally taken on Saturdays, with some sessions on Thursdays, to give test takers and centres more flexibility.
Centres can offer tests up to four times per month depending on local demand. Not all centres offer tests on all dates and it is important to confirm test dates with the centre.
The Listening, Reading and Writing tests are all taken on the same day. The Speaking test can take place up to seven days before or after the other papers; this is decided by the centre.
To register for an IELTS test, you need to submit your application form at least 2 weeks before the test date. Make sure you speak to the centre in good time.
