The Enhanced Language Training Placement Assessment (ELTPA)

After an entry for CLB last month, today I'm writing a bit about ELTPA test in Canada. This post will be very brief actually. Usually, if you're planning to join a Bridging program from one of Universities/Colleges in Canada, they require CLB score of 7 or 8.  If you have failed to get that CLB score in your first attempt, you won't be able to resit the test within 6 months. Here is the reason for ELTPA taking place. This is the next test candidate for those who pass CLB 6 or higher but still not meet their need. Some Bridging programs or colleges in Canada will consider this ELTPA as an alternative for CLB if ELTPA score is higher than CLB, not all of them. Before attempting ELTPA, you should confirm with your education institute to see if they accept it. If you just want to self experience, go ahead and acquire as much as you can. Since it's hard to find useful info about ELTPA, this post will try to describe what I've known about the test after my own test. The post is not an absolute guide from any officially Canadian Language Assessment office. Please be advised!

Canadian Language Benchmark Test (CLB)

It has been a while since my last post. I'm getting a longer and longer gap between posts now. It seems to me that my life is just moving forward by the exponential of the busy level. One year ago, I thought that maybe I could never find any busier moments than that time in my life later on. I was wrong. Now I know how it looks like when I have to tighten every single minute in my days. Anyway, let's drive back to the topic for today. I just took CLB test last week. Since the test is just used in Canada, it was too hard to find some information about test format or framework on the Internet. I think I should share some tips and hope they work out for people who need the test score for a university/college application.
