Venue confirmed when your seat is booked

CELPIP lists an Abuja test centre for both CELPIP-General and CELPIP-General LS. Mafit is not a CELPIP test centre. We register you, prepare you and confirm your venue and date before you pay.

Test centre details are taken from the official CELPIP website and checked in October 2026. Seats and dates can change, so your counsellor confirms both before you pay.

How we prepare you

Built for a test with no examiner.

Speaking

Talk to the timer

CELPIP Speaking is recorded, not face to face. You practise all eight task types into a headset, listen back with your tutor and fix the pauses that cost marks.

Writing

Typed, reviewed, rewritten

Timed emails and survey responses typed on a computer, the way you will on test day, each one marked and returned with notes.

Listening and Reading

Canadian context

Accents, place names and everyday situations are Canadian. We train you on them so nothing on the screen feels foreign.

Mock tests

Full computer mocks

Sit full length CELPIP style mocks on a computer at our Abuja centre, then go through every section with your tutor before the real thing.

How long do CELPIP results take?

Should I take CELPIP-General or CELPIP-General LS?

Take CELPIP-General for Canadian permanent residence, including Express Entry. CELPIP-General LS tests only Listening and Speaking and is the version used for Canadian citizenship.

Is CELPIP or IELTS better for Canada from Abuja?

Both are accepted for Canadian permanent residence. CELPIP suits candidates who prefer a fully computer based test with recorded Speaking and Canadian everyday topics.
