O que é TOEIC?

The Test of English for International Communication is produced by ETS® (Educational Testing Service).

TOEIC test questions are based on real-life work settings in an international environment (meetings, travel, telephone conversations, etc).

What is the TOEIC® test like?
There are two separate parts to the TOEIC test. You can do one or both parts.

1. The Listening and Reading test is a paper based test taken in a public test centre or insitution.
2. The Speaking and Writing test is an online test that is taken in a test centre and takes approximately 80 minutes.

Both tests can be taken in test centres in more than 150 countries. TOEIC Speaking and Writing tests will be scored out of 200.
