Well this certainly is news that will make many people extremely happy.

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) will launch IELTS Online, a flexible and secure at-home language test, starting from early 2022.

Students will be able to take only IELTS Academic, the English-language test for higher education that has the same content as IELTS paper and computer versions covering listening, reading, writing, and speaking.

The speaking test will be via an online video call with a human examiner. For IELTS General, individuals still have to go to an authorized IELTS test centre.
