TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication):
Test of English for International Communication. It is often the standard for measuring English ability in the business world. Many international companies including Sony, Phillips, Microsoft and Samsung require a TOEIC score of between 600 and 990 points and many companies consider English ability when promoting staff from within.

Anyone can take a TOEIC test regardless of their English ability, but it is generally recommended for intermediate or advanced level students. Once you take the first practice test you are on the road to improving your English. As you study harder, and take more practice tests, you will see your score go up week-by-week, which will motivate you to work harder. Once you take an official TOEIC test you have the key to a better future.
