** New Test Reservation Policies for local test takers **
Effective July 1, 2013 the Center for Professional Assessment (Thailand) will implement a new policy requiring at least seven calendar days between all TOEIC or other test dates for tests offered through our test centers in Thailand.
Local test takers will no longer be allowed to reserve test dates, or "walk-In," for testing services unless the new test date is at least seven days beyond the date of the previous test.
CPA Thailand apologize if this causes any inconvenience for any test taker.
In order to promote the use of English at SIIT, the English Quality Assurance Committee (EQAC) was formed to make recommendations to the Executive Committee on two issues:
1. English proficiency assessment test for the graduation requirement.
2. Procedures and activities to improve the English abilities of SIIT students so that they can meet the graduation requirement.
In addition to these primary functions, the EQAC also organizes or assists in organizing campus activities to encourage the use of English, promotes the campuswide use of English as an international language, consults with programs on appropriate content for SIIT English courses, and conducts training courses for nonteaching staff.
