CELPIP-G Test

If your goal is to live, work, or obtain Canadian Permanent Residency, proving your English proficiency is a critical step. The CELPIP (Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program) is Canada’s leading general English test, designed specifically for immigration and professional designation.

• *The Exam Preparation & Testing House FZCO (TEPTH) is proud to be an official authorized test center for CELPIP in Dubai, UAE. By choosing TEPTH, you gain the advantage of preparing for and sitting your official exam in a single, state-of-the-art testing facility that guarantees a secure, comfortable, and distraction-free environment.

Unlike academic tests designed for university admissions, the CELPIP test focuses on everyday, real-world English used in Canadian workplaces and social situations.

CELPIP evaluates your ability to use English in everyday Canadian scenarios. Instead of complex academic lectures, you will be tested on practical situations—like communicating with coworkers, understanding a news broadcast, or writing an email to a manager. One of the standout features of CELPIP is that it uses a single North American accent, making audio segments naturally easy to follow.

• Key Takeaway:* The entire test is completely computer-delivered and completed in one single 3-hour sitting. You will not need to schedule a separate appointment for a face-to-face speaking interview.

• Fast Results: Your official test scores are available online quickly, typically within 4 to 5 calendar days.
• Direct CLB Mapping: The scoring system is perfectly aligned with the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB). A CELPIP score of 8 directly equals a CLB 8, making it straightforward to calculate your Express Entry immigration points.
• Helpful Built-in Features: Because the test is entirely computer-based, the Writing section includes a personal timer, a word counter, and a standard English spell-check tool.
• A Single Sitting: You will complete all four components on a computer without having to leave the room or schedule a separate speaking test.

During your 3-hour session at our authorized Dubai testing facility, you will complete:

• Listening (46–55 minutes): Listen to short conversations, news items, and discussions, then answer multiple-choice questions.
• Reading (43–56 minutes): Read everyday materials like emails, diagrams, and informative articles, followed by comprehension questions.
• Writing (53–60 minutes): Write an email regarding a day-to-day matter and respond to a survey question expressing your opinion.
• Speaking (15–20 minutes): Speak directly into your headset microphone to provide advice, describe a scene, make predictions, and express your opinions based on on-screen prompts.

The CELPIP General test is officially recognized by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). It is also accepted by the Real Estate Council of British Columbia, the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC), and numerous professional organizations across Canada. By taking an exam designed by Canadians, for Canada, you clear a straightforward path to achieving your immigration goals.
