ILEC

International Legal English Certificate

ILEC is an internationally recognized exam created for those who need to show their ability to communicate in the legal context with clients and professionals in other countries, and to handle information written in English.

ILEC is produced and assessed by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations, in collaboration with Translegal – Europe’s leading firm of lawyer-linguists. It is recognised by leading associations of lawyers including the European Company Lawyers Association, the European Law Students Association, the International Association of Young Lawyers, and the European Young Bar Association.

ILEC is an examination set at levels B2 (Vantage) and C1 (Effective operational proficiency) of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Examinations at the C1 level may be used as proof of the level of language necessary to work in an international legal context or to follow a course of legal study at university level.

Exam content:

Test of Reading – 1 hour and 15 minutes
There are six parts that test candidates´ knowledge and control of the language system, candidates´ understanding of the meaning of written English at word, phrase, sentence and paragraph level.
Test of Writing – 1 hour and 15 minutes
The paper consists of two law-related writing tasks – a letter and a memorandum
Test of Listening – 40 minutes
Test consists of four parts – monologues and dialogues which include presentations, lectures, announcements, discussions, interviews etc.
Test of Speaking – 16 minutes
Test examines candidates´ ability to exchange personal and factual information, expressing and finding attitudes and opinions.

Results and certificates:

The four ILEC papers total 200 marks – each of the papers is weighted to 50 marks. Results are reported in three passing grades (C1 Pass with Merit, C1 Pass and B2 Pass) and two failing grades (Narrow Fail and Fail). Candidates´ total score is based on the candidates´ performance in all four papers. Candidates can compensate their poor performance in one part by performing well on the other components.

Statements of results are issued approximately six weeks after the examination has been taken. All candidates receive a statement of results showing their performance on each of the four papers and an overall grade, and candidates who achieve passing grades will receive an official certificate awarded by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations.

The ILEC exam is administered twice a year, in May and November.
