Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CELPIP Test?
The Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program (CELPIP) is a general English language proficiency test. The CELPIP Test allows test takers to demonstrate their ability to function in English. The test clearly, accurately, and precisely assesses a test taker’s English abilities in a variety of everyday situations, such as communicating with co-workers and superiors in the workplace, interacting with friends, understanding newscasts, and interpreting and responding to written materials.
Is CELPIP harder than IELTS?
All the language proficiency tests measure English language skills and have different scoring, coverage, duration, and test purposes. Some consider the IELTS more complicated to get a higher score compared to other language proficiency tests available in the market. The IELTS has two versions that cater to the different needs and purposes of its test-takers. The IELTS Test is highly accepted by thousands of educational institutions worldwide. It is also one of the requirements for migration and other career-related requirements, especially for international employers. In Canada, one of the accepted language proficiency is the CELPIP. It is generally the preferred language assessment test for any individuals who wish to migrate or work in Canada. The test is not complicated compared to the IELTS. It is also shorter when it comes to testing durations. This is why most students prefer the CELPIP because it is accessible, affordable, and does not take much of your time while giving you standardized and accurate test results.

The Academic IELTS examination is recognized as an entrance requirement by British, Australian, Canadian and New Zealand universities as well as for secondary, vocational and training programmes worldwide.
