Welcome to the corporate placement test. There are 2 parts to the placement test:

  • This online test
  • An interview - either face to face or via telephone

Please give yourself no more than 45 minutes to complete all sections of this test. We recommend that you spend no more than 20 minutes of the first part of the test (50 grammar and vocabulary questions) before you move on to complete the questionnaire. When you have finished all sections click on the 'send' button. You must complete all fields or you will be asked to start all over again.

After testing and interviewing, ILS, together with our training partners will decide language training questions for the coming academic year. If you are offered the opportunity to improve your English it will be in one of the following formats:

  • Private class
  • Group course for language improvement
  • Group course for business English with international examination

These options will be explained in more detail if you are offered the chance to study in an organised programme.

Good luck!
