The New Zealand Aid Programme, acting for and on behalf of the Secretary of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), invites submission of responses from suitably qualified and experienced organisations or consultants (including consortia) to provide International English Language Testing Services (IELTS) to support services as outlined in the Terms of Reference.
The goal of the IELTS initiative (hereinafter referred to as the Activity) is to provide access to IELTS testing services and preparatory study material for New Zealand scholarship applicants to gain the required level of English language proficiency required for University studies.
The goals to be achieved are:
• To provide access to IELTS testing as part of the scholarships selection process in-country in PNG, Fiji, Tuvalu, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Kiribati, (8 countries). IELTS testing is usually the final stage of the selection process before admission is sought for the Candidate at a New Zealand tertiary education institution, so it is important that access to IELTS testing occurs in a timely manner which allows sufficient time for placement requests to be processed ahead of applicants commencing study in New Zealand.
• To provide preparatory study services to be delivered to Candidates (Candidates) immediately before the IELTS tests (the Tests). This is to ensure that the Tests are as accurate a reflection of the Candidate’s English language ability as possible, and that test scores are not unduly influenced by the Candidate’s lack of familiarity with the material or uncertainty about the testing conditions.
Please note the deadline for the submission of responses is 5pm (NZ Time) 02 August 2016
