As you may be aware, the Australian and New Zealand Governments introduced new rules and regulations over the weekend in an effort to control the COVID-19 outbreak. Regardless of your own personal views, ISLPR Language Services will be taking great caution when it comes to protecting our staff, customers, families and friends. Due to the close nature of the ISLPR test (one-to-one testing in a small enclosed room), the sensible thing to do at the moment is heed the advice of the Australian government and health officials and practise social distancing. We believe that, if all citizens heed the advice provided by the authorities, we may be able to reduce the impact this virus will have on our community and, in particular, the health system in Australia.

We have received a number of requests from Fiji-based candidates asking if we can organise travel dates to Fiji to conduct ISLPR tests.
We require all interested candidates to register their interest on our website so that we can monitor the demand. Once we gauge interest and believe there is enough interest to warrant travel, we will schedule test dates in Fiji.
Please be aware that, as per our PPTC Guidelines, we require a minimum if 20-25 candidates to warrant travel overseas.

UPDATE: due to COVID-19 we are unable to confirm future travel dates to Auckland. We will notify candidates via email once we have more information to share.
We are a Brisbane based company that travels to conduct the test in different locations. Although restrictions are easing and the QLD border has opened to New Zealand, the New Zealand border has not opened to QLD. Therefore, we are unable to confirm new test dates as we are still required to quarantine for two weeks when we arrive in NZ. Please note that we are keeping up to date with all the changes to restrictions. As soon as it is possible for us to travel again we will let you know.
The ISLPR® test is currently accepted by the New Zealand Teacher Registration Board. Why choose the ISLPR® test? The ISLPR® test is a personalised English test that focuses on your background and needs when formulating the content of the test. Each test is individually prepared by your tester to ensure the content is relevant to you e.g. a teacher might be asked in the writing test to write a letter to a parent explaining why their child was given a detention.
