CELPIP Testing: Available across Canada and around the world

CELPIP
Published: September 20, 2022

With over 100 testing locations available around the world, and over 80 locations in Canada alone, you are never far from a CELPIP Test centre.

In order to ensure that our test takers are able to easily access our centres, we partner with organizations that provide testing in central locations, located on transit routes and with readily available public parking. In each major centre in Canada, you will find a CELPIP testing location that suits your needs, and that meets your accessibility requirements. Multiple test centres are available in many Canadian cities, ensuring that you can find a location nearby and schedule your test to meet your needs. To find out more about where we test, and to find a CELPIP test centre near you, visit our testing locations page on our website.

Testing Frequency

In addition to providing as many test locations as possible to meet your needs, we also work to provide flexible test sitting options that work with your schedule. This includes testing during the week and on weekends, with a range of test times in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. We also ensure that test sittings meet your time needs, and we regularly schedule additional testing when registrations for our sittings are full or are close to filling up. With a test duration of approximately 3 hours, CELPIP testing is completed entirely on a computer in just one sitting, with no additional appointments needed. To see a complete list of scheduled tests by location, visit our test schedule page on our website.

International Locations

To support our test takers that are not yet in Canada, we are excited to provide you with test sittings at international locations. This includes testing locations around the world in Japan, Nigeria, the United Kingdom, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, India, China, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, and the United States.

Testing Results

For all of our CELPIP test takers, we are excited to announce that scores are now available online through your CELPIP account as a downloadable PDF. Test results are available in just 4 to 5 calendar days after you have completed your test, and we now offer a downloadable version that can be submitted to organizations such as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), giving you even faster access to your scores and their submission to complete your applications.
