International Legal English Certificate    

What is the International Legal English Certificate (ILEC)?

The International Legal English Certificate (ILEC) is:

an advanced examination (set at levels B2 and C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) which assesses language skills in a legal context   
a Cambridge ESOL examination, produced and assessed in collaboration with TransLegal, Europe's leading firm of lawyer-linguists   
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.   

Why take the International Legal English Certificate (ILEC)?

The International Legal English Certificate (ILEC) is for law students or practising lawyers who are:

seeking employment in an international commercial law context   
intending to study law where the course includes a significant English language content, either in their own country or abroad   
seeking promotion within their own organisations   
learning English as part of a training programme.   

How it works

The examination takes approximately four hours in total and consists of four papers:

Reading    
Writing    
Listening   
Speaking.   

The Test of Speaking is conducted face-to-face by qualified oral examiners.

The examination is based on realistic tasks of the kind legal practitioners would be expected to encounter in their daily working lives. Successful candidates are able to use the language in practical situations, to participate in meetings and discussions of a legal nature, express opinions clearly and are able to understand and to produce texts of various types, including legal letters, memoranda, and proposals. Examinations will be delivered through Cambridge ESOL's network of authorised examination centres throughout Europe and beyond.

Grading and certification

Written papers will be marked in the UK, by Cambridge ESOL examiners.

Test results are normally reported within six weeks of the test date. There is a range of passing and failing grades to distinguish levels of performance.

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.
