IELTS Celebrates its 20th Anniversary

IELTS has celebrated its 20th anniversary worldwide, throughout 2009. The UK celebration took place in London, overlooking the River Thames, on Friday 27th November. Over 140 friends and colleagues from embassies, institutions, organisations and the media, with representatives from over 20 countries joined the IELTS partners at the event. Since IELTS’ start in 1989 over 6 million candidates have taken the test to secure their ambitions and enable them to meet others on common ground, through a common language for a greater global good. One such test-taker was Satish Peters, who now works in Wealth Management Banking, Bank of America. Watch his soundbite at the link below’.
