\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, Oxford International Digital Institute has gone from strength to strength. We are proud to share that last year we served over 36,000 students through our English Language Testing Division. Our flagship testing product, ELLT, became a firm favourite with number of tests taken increasing by 75% from January to November 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on the tremendous success of the ELLT, we have continued to focus on developing meaningful innovation that offers a quality educational experience for students worldwide and in towards the end of 2022 we extended our English Language Testing range with two new products, Spotlight & ELLT Global.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Spotlight?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Spotlight is an entirely online English language level indicator test which enables students to assess their English language abilities from the comfort of their homes. It is a fully adaptive test that does not involve direct human proctoring, and instead, it employs AI proctoring and intelligent security features to maintain integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In just 90 minutes, the test is designed to provide a quick and accurate reflection of a student’s English proficiency, as well as providing directional insights into areas for further development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 90 minutes, a candidate completes 84 questions divided into 6 ‘Tracks’ that test candidate’s skills across four areas: grammar & vocabulary, reading and listening. Each track holds multiple skill-based questions which adapt in complexity based on the candidate’s performance. A candidate’s level is determined, refined, and scored across the 6 Tracks to indicate their English language proficiency accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completing Spotlight, candidates receive an instant result mapped to a CEFR score from A1 to C1 based on their overall performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important Note: <\/strong>Spotlight is designed as a placement test and does not require a language proficiency certificate e.g., for entry into university. A candidate can do a Spotlight indicator test before conducting accredited English-level testing to refine their understanding of areas of strength and development. As such, it is not a substitute for the English Language Level Test (ELLT) and is not suitable for entry into university<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why can students do after completing Spotlight?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on students’ academic goals, Spotlight can help students determine their next step toward a desired study destination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completing the test and receiving their results, students may choose to enrol in our online pre-sessional English course to increase their academic English language skills to the level required by their chosen degree programme before applying to study in higher education institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, if a student is satisfied with their Spotlight results, they may choose to book our ELLT exam. After completing the ELLT and receiving their results and certificate, students can apply to their desired study programme at our partner universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spotlight can be purchased directly via our Oxford International Digital Institute website.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is ELLT Global?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The ELLT Global is an online modularised English language skill test covering the four essential English proficiency skills. Similar to ELLT, all parts of the test are completed via the ELLT Portal. However, the ELLT Global test is taken in an invigilated environment at an approved Oxford International Digital Institute Test Centre, offering increased security and assurance to partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each accredited OIDI Test Centre conducts the security checks and provides a test environment, with the ELLT portal and qualified ELLT examiners completing the examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completing all four test steps, students receive an accurate and certified result and a certificate with proof of their English language level, enabling them to move forward and apply to university courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To deliver the ELLT Global to students in their home countries, we have partnered with VFS Global<\/strong>, a world leader in visa outsourcing and technology services with a presence in more than 3395 locations spanning 144 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To date, students can book their ELLT Global at Oxford International Pathway Colleges in London, Oxford, and Brighton centres as well as through VFS Global enabled ELLT Global testing locations in Mumbai, Dhaka, and Sylhet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more locations planned and greater access for candidates, we are thrilled to join VFS Global in providing students with a secure and reliable pathway to their education and supporting their international study journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why can students do after completing Spotlight?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If a student is satisfied with their ELLT Global results, he may further apply to the desired study programme in universities across the UK, Europe and North America. OI Digital Institute, which administers the ELLT and ELLT Global, partners with many universities to allow students to use their ELLT certificate as proof of their language level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
