IELTS - The International English Language Testing System
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) measures the language proficiency of people who want to study or work where English is used as a language of communication. It uses a nine-band scale to clearly identify levels of proficiency, from non-user (band score 1) through to expert (band score 9). IELTS Preparation Course in Atlas Group of Institutions aims to prepare students with the skills and strategies needed to pass the IELTS examination with a higher band score.
Atlas Group of Institutions is IELTS test registration partner with British Council
