It is used to check the language proficiency level of an individual who has plans to pursue education or work in a country where English language is medium of communication. The level of proficiency is identified through a nine band scale. If a band score is 1 then that person is declared as non user but if band score 9 which is the top score then it means that the person is an expert. There are over 10,000 education and training institutes in the world which have recognized IELTS certificate as an evidence of English proficiency.
