What measures are in place to guarantee IELTS’ security? Rigorous processes are applied when producing test materials to ensure that every version of the test is of a comparable level of difficulty. This means that IELTS results are consistent wherever and whenever candidates take the test.
Test markers are tested every two years to retain their certification and are regularly monitored and evaluated. The free IELTS Test Report verification service on the IELTS website allows organisations to authenticate results and safeguard against fraudulent report forms using a safe and secure online database. For more details on security measures, see Security and integrity, and Quality control and research.
