Computer-delivered IELTS

Our centre has been the first IELTS centre in Europe to offer the computer-delivered test, offering candidates a quick and intuitive alternative to the paper based test.

The computer delivered test is exactly identical to the paper-based test in terms of content, score, difficulty and type of questions. The listening, reading and writing tests will be carried out using a computer while the speaking test will take place face to face with an IELTS examiner.

The IELTS test is available in Academic and General modules. The “Academic” module is ideal for those who wish to attend university and post-graduate courses, such as masters, MBAs, doctorates, as well as for those who aspire to enroll in a professional register. On the contrary, the “General Training” module is more suitable for candidates who intend to emigrate to an English-speaking country (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA).
