The Institute for International Business Communication, which implements and operates the TOEIC Program in Japan, withdraws the application for participation in the "TOEIC L & R (Listening & Reading Test)" and "TOEIC S & W (Speaking & Writing Tests)" university entrance exam English grade provision system. I made it.

 The Institute for International Business Communication has been preparing for the start of system operation from April 2020, such as discussing the conclusion of an agreement with the National Center for University Entrance Examinations.However, the TOEIC test is a form in which listening and reading, speaking and writing are carried out separately.As the social demands of the university entrance examination English grade provision system become clear, the process from application for entrance examination to implementation and operation and provision of results will be considerably more complicated than originally envisioned. I understood.

 Therefore, at this point, discussions with the National Center for University Entrance Examinations to conclude the agreement have not been completed, and it is difficult for the association to take responsibility for various measures at the start of system operation.If the decision-making time is delayed further and the examinees, parents, and school officials are not inconvenienced, it will be decided that the application for participation in the TOEIC L & R and TOEIC S & W university entrance examination English grade provision system will be withdrawn. rice field.
