Choosing an English assessment option
An English assessment provides a snapshot of your current English skills. You can use this to determine whether you are ready to enter your program of choice, or whether you need upgrading first. Please select from the two options below to book your assessment.
Is English an additional language for you? Do you need to upgrade your English skills before starting your program? Before you book your assessment, please contact English Language Development.
Option A
- I do not have confidence in my English skills.
- I did not complete academic English 10.
- I sometimes experience significant test anxiety (some anxiety is normal).
If this sounds like you, please email our Instructional Assistant or call 250-370-3945 to schedule your assessment
Option B
- I completed English 10 or higher.
- I am fairly confident with my English skills.
- I get a little nervous during tests, but I am ok with it.
- I have not been enrolled in a Camosun English course for at least 4 months.
If this sounds like you, Register Online for your computerized assessment.
