Delivering Results

Several of iTEP’s international distributors presented on project successes and current initiatives in their respective markets. One such example was “How to Win and Deliver a Complex Government Project,” by Laura Victoria Zabala, CEO of eDistribution SAS.

Laura discussed the challenges of expanding from Colombia into Ecuador and working on a nation-wide testing project. iTEP partners from the USA, Europe, Brazil, Japan, Turkey, Mexico, and China were also present and actively participated in the discussions.

Activities concluded on Sunday, June 2 with a cultural tour of Washington DC and closing luncheon. This event, along with all of the superb luncheons and dinners, was arranged by iTEP CEO, Sharif Ossaryan, and allowed for iTEP staff and international partners to have time to interact and spend time together outside of the conference room. Traveling as a group to see the many monuments of DC was a perfect way to finish a successful week of planning, exhibiting, conferring, and charting a course forward for iTEP International.

The International Test of English Proficiency (iTEP) was introduced in 2008 to modernize English language assessment with on-demand scheduling, 24 hour grading, and accurate test data. iTEP provides a convenient and cost-effective testing option delivered in a highly secure environment.

iTEP offers a variety of assessment tools for university and secondary school admissions and ESL placement, hiring and employee assessment (including tests for specific industries), and iTEP Conversation, which assesses conversation skills in 30 minutes. All iTEP exams are graded by certified and trained native English speakers.

More than 800 colleges, universities, middle/high schools, and boarding schools in the USA and Canada accept iTEP results for admissions. Applicants can take iTEP at more than 500 test centers in 61 countries. iTEP International is headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
