A collaboration between IEAA, academic and operational leaders, the catalogue of guides may be a useful tool for anyone involved in making decisions around English language policies in higher education. Included in the document is a guiding framework that can be used to evaluate and select tests for admissions purposes.
The Guide is not designed to be read from front to back – they are designed according to topic areas.
