The Hong Kong Management Association (HKMA) uses IELTS scores to shortlist job applicants

In September 2005, HKMA sent a letter to the University Grant Committee regarding “Common English Proficiency Assessment Scheme” (CEPAS). They promised to support the CEPAS scheme and use the IELTS scores to shortlist job applicants. They also promised to inform their members of the CEPAS scheme.

 
 

The Big Four international accounting firms Support IELTS CEPAS

In May 2005, the Big Four international accounting firms (Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Ernst & Young, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers) sent letters to the local tertiary institutions indicating their support to UGC to provide a common framework for assessing and documenting graduating students' English proficiency and the new initiative to facilitate students' job applications. The IELTS scores of graduating students would be taken into account in their annual graduate recruitment programme.

 
 

HKSAR Government recognises IELTS

An overall band of 6.5 or above with no subtest score below band 6 obtained in the same sitting in the Academic Module of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) within the 2-year validity period of the test are accepted as equivalent to 'Level 2' result in the UE paper of the CRE. Applicants with the above results may wish to take this into account in deciding whether they need to take the UE paper.
