Foreign Language Proficiency Test

The FLPT is a general language proficiency test developed and administered by the Language Training and Testing Center (LTTC). It incorporates listening, usage, vocabulary, reading, and speaking components, and is given monthly in English, Japanese, French, German, and Spanish. This test is suitable for adult learners at the tertiary level of education, aged over 18.

The FLPT contains a 130-minute multiple-choice section for listening, usage, and vocabulary and reading, as well as a 15-minute free-response section for speaking. The first section is paper-based and machine-scored; the second section is tape-recorded and scored by trained evaluators on a holistic scale.

The FLPT has been administered since 1965 and is currently used by more than 400 public and private institutions as an element in decision-making processes related to job promotion and overseas training or assignments. The test users include the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Justice, Teacher Education Program of National Taiwan University, Taiwan Power Company, Chunghwa Telecom , and many public and private banks.
