work in an environment where English is used as a communication language.
There are two modules to choose from: IELTS Academic and IELTS
General Training.

contact the institution where you registered to confirm their requirements.

UK government. This means that IELTS can be used to prove that your English
language skills support your UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI) application.
