Why IELTS?
IELTS is the world’s most trusted English test, accepted by immigration authorities, companies and universities across Europe.

As co-owners of the IELTS test, the British Council supports test takers with comprehensive preparation material to ensure their best possible score is obtained. To ensure test takers are comfortable with the format, IELTS is offered on computer or on paper.
When you take IELTS on Computer, you can expect to see results in 1 – 5 calendar days, making it the ideal test format to meet application deadlines.
Why study or work in Europe?
There are countless opportunities in Europe for people who want to gain experience abroad. In Germany, you can attend a public university for free and only pay an administrative fee. This means you can graduate with a globally recognised degree without having to worry about tuition fees.
Healthcare workers will find their skills in high demand in countries like Ireland and the Netherlands while countries like Denmark and Spain are looking for educators.
