The listening, reading and writing (written parts) are held consecutively on the same day. The written parts take about three (3) hours to complete.

Speaking Tests may be scheduled any time from three days before to three days after the written parts. The venue for the speaking test may vary from the venue for the written parts of the test but candidates are advised of the correct venue.

Tests are conducted regularly in Manila and Cebu and Baguio and irregularly in Davao, Bacolod, Iloilo, Legaspi, Naga, Cagayan de Oro, Iligan and Zamboanga depending on demand. Currently, tests are held in large hotels or in institutions with large testing areas.
The venue for the test is advised to you at the time of registering (if it is known) and also confirmed by telephone or mail about one week before the test date.
