What is CEPAS?

The Common English Proficiency Assessment Scheme (CEPAS) was introduced by the University Grants Committee (UGC) in 2002-03.

Under the scheme, final year students of publicly-funded undergraduate degree programmes of UGC-funded institutions are encouraged to take the academic module of International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Eligible candidates may have their test fee reimbursed.

    CEPAS was introduced to :
  • Encourage students to be more aware of the importance of proficiency in English
  • Provide a common framework for assessing and documenting graduating students’ English proficiency
  • Provide an internationally recognised assessment for students wishing to pursue further studies or entering the workforce
  • Enable the UGC to have a better understanding of students’ English abilities which will help in formulating its strategies in respect of language enhancement
