The IELTS (International English Language Testing System) preparation course is designed for those who wish to obtain an internationally recognised certificate.
The IELTS certificate is recognised by the Australian Government for migration issues and is a prerequisite for those who wish to engage in higher education or professional pathways.
The IETLS exam includes four test bands: reading comprehension, writing, listening and speaking. The preparation course aims to enhance language competencies in order to achieve the highest score on the exam. Skills developed are vocabulary, reading, writing and speaking.
The course prepares for the test and requires an intermediate entry level of English. If you wish to enrol in an IELTS course, a pre-entry test is usually required followed by another test on the course start date. Schools must assess individual language skills prior to course beginning.
The IELTS exam score system ranges from 0 to 9. The course is divided into two classes: intermediate and advanced.
- The Generic Module is the traditional IELTS exam for those who require a certificate for curricula purposes, migration requirements (sponsorship or skilled migration) or for admittance to vocational courses (average minimum score 5.5).
The Academic Module is a more complex IELTS exam for those who need to meet academic entry requirements. The minimum score is usually 6.5.
