Success stories
Taken here. Trusted everywhere.
My daughter walked into her Flyers exam smiling. JPI made the whole journey, classes, mock tests, the big day, feel like a celebration.
B2 First opened the door. Every university I applied to accepted my certificate without question, it travels better than I do.
Linguaskill results in two days meant I could attach proof of my English to a job application the very same week.

Questions we answer every day.
Still wondering?Our team picks up Mon–Sat, 8.30am–5pm.0711 640 640
How do I register for an exam?
Register online, at any JPI branch, or over the hotline. You'll need your details, a preferred session date and venue, we confirm your seat and send preparation materials within two working days.
How much does an exam cost?
Fees vary by qualification and level. Young Learners exams cost less than Main Suite exams like B2 First. Call us or visit a branch for the current fee schedule; instalment plans are available for preparation courses.
When will I get my results?
Linguaskill results arrive within 48 hours. Paper-based Cambridge exams are typically released four to six weeks after the session, with printed certificates following from Cambridge shortly after.
Which exam is right for me, or my child?
Take the free 15-minute placement test, or speak to an advisor at any branch. As a rule of thumb: ages 6–12 start with Young Learners; school leavers and adults sit the Main Suite; professionals choose Linguaskill.
Where can I sit my exam?
At any of our 22 locations island-wide, five JPI branches and seventeen partner exam venues, from Jaffna to Galle. See the network map to find the venue closest to you.
