IELTS – the world’s most popular test of English for higher education and global migration, is continually seeking to make enhancements to improve our customers’ and stakeholders’ test experience. In 2016 IELTS introduced a computer-delivered version of IELTS in 20 countries for customers requiring a visa to support their application to come to the UK to visit, study or work. Having built on our experience we are now making computer-delivered IELTS more broadly available commencing in Australia in December 2017. This new format offers our customers more choice – now they can choose the format and time to take IELTS that best works for them. Test takers who choose the computer-delivered option will take their Listening, Reading and Writing sections using a computer. The Speaking test will remain face-to-face, as we believe it is the most effective way of assessing speaking skills and prompts a more realistic performance from test takers.
