IELTS (International English Language Testing System) slúži na otestovanie úrovne anglického jazyka. Tento medzinárodne uznávaný jazykový test je vhodný najmä pre študentov, ktorí plánujú dalej študovat na univerzitách a iných vzdelávacích inštitúciách vo Veľkej Británii, Austrálii, na Novom Zélande, Kanade a USA.
Výsledok testu IELTS Vám povie, či je kandidát schopný študovať v angličtine, alebo pracovať v prostredí, kde je angličtina dorozumievacím jazykom.
