Some immigration routes require applicants to demonstrate English language proficiency.

Test Facilitation The supplier will be responsible for: • Operating an online platform for test booking and result delivery • Establishing and managing global test centres • Providing trained invigilators • Conducting secure ID verification and ensuring strict exam conditions • Supporting audit processes to uphold security and delivery standards Please note: that there are 268 test centres operating across 142 countries globally. This 4th round of Market Engagement is being undertaken, to gather market insights on newly available and emerging technology in relation to remote testing, and the viability of incorporating this into the HOELT service.
