Cambridge Exam Courses
Key English Test (KET)
(CEF A2 – Pre-intermediate)
KET is the Cambridge ESOL’s exam which recognises the ability to deal with everyday written and spoken English at a basic level. KET is a truly international certificate, recognised by administrative, industrial, and service-based employers as a qualification in intermediate English. It is also accepted by many educational institutions for study purposes. Companies such as Epson, Nestlé, Motorola and KPMG all recognise the value of KET in their overseas offices.
Preliminary English Test (PET)
(CEF B1 – Intermediate)
PET is an exam for people who can use everyday written and spoken English at an intermediate level. A PET certificate is valid for life. You will not need to take the exam again. It is truly an international certificate, recognised around the world for business and study purposes. Thousands of employers, universities and government departments officially recognise PET as an intermediate qualification in English. Although PET is a basic exam, it offers a chance to find out your strengths and weaknesses in using English, and gives you a pathway to higher qualifications such as the First Certificate in English (FCE).

Yoonjeong Bae, Korean
Exam Preparation Course (FCE) 
"Warm sunshine, fantastic beaches, a safe atmosphere and many leisure activities : all these things attract students who want to learn English to come to Malta. The main reason I came to Malta was to prepare for the Cambridge FCE exam, so quality of teaching was my main consideration.
I found it very helpful preparing for the exam here. Firstly, IELS have teachers who are very experienced in preparing students for English examinations. Secondly, I was gently introduced to a wide range of task types relevant to the FCE exam. I also learnt the skills needed to approach this exam.
All in all, I'm very satisfied with my exam course at IELS. It really helped me to improve my English. Now, I feel more confident to sit the exam."
