PROFICIENCY EXAMINATIONS
In
regulated professions, language proficiency examinations serve as a
means to ensure that professionals can communicate at a suitable level.
It is advised that applicants check with their association for the list
of acceptable examinations and the scores that must be achieved for
registration.
Some
general tips in regards to language proficiency examinations in general
are:
·
Prepare
for the exam! Sometimes everyday interaction in English may not be
enough to achieve an acceptable score. Consult the list of resources or
consider taking a preparation course.
·
Do not
be late – otherwise, applicants may forfeit the exam fee. Be aware of
the cancellation and refund policy.
·
Know
what documents will be required to write the test. Be sure to have the
proper identification, confirmation documents and/or supplies.
·
Be
aware of the length of the test. As applicants may have to travel out
of town to the testing centre, and due to scheduling considerations,
they may have to remain at the testing site for the entire day.
·
Dress
comfortably for the exam. |
