Many international companies and universities rely on the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC®) to reliably assess practical English skills.
Please note: The TOEIC® distinguishes between the Institutional Programme (IP) and the Public Programme (PP). Both tests are identical in content and scored according to the same ETS standards. The difference lies in the test administration and the form of the certificate: The PP certificate includes a photo and is recognised worldwide for official purposes (visas, university admissions). The IP certificate is also an official ETS document with identical scores, but without a photo and primarily intended for use by companies, universities or within Germany. Eloquia exclusively offers the TOEIC® Institutional Programme (IP).
