Why to choose CELPIP?
- The CELPIP exam is fully computerized, removing the need for handwriting, sharpening pencils, or using erasers, which can complicate paper-based exams. It also offers a spell-check feature during the writing module, helping candidates avoid the stress of memorizing complex spellings.
- The exam uses a consistent North American slang, making it easier to understand vocabulary and grammar, as it mirrors the daily conversational tone. The speaking test is also computerized, allowing candidates—especially those who feel nervous in front of an examiner—to speak comfortably, with no person involved.
- CELPIP is a one-session test, meaning candidates don’t need to return for different modules. Additionally, there are numerous exam dates available for flexibility.
