Alternatives to CELPIP General and General LS - regions

Whilst CELPIP is well suited for those looking to obtain PR, citizenship and professional registration in Canada it is not as globally recognised and trusted as IELTS.

IELTS Academic and General Training are both already accepted by the Canadian Government and various academic institutions for immigration and academic acceptance. In addition to Canada, it is also widely accepted for study, work and migration across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the USA.

By taking IELTS, you’ll have access to a wider range of opportunities, both domestically and internationally. Overall, while both CELPIP and IELTS are valid options, we often find IELTS is a better fit for worldwide acceptance and recognition.
