2022 年起，IELTS Online将在全球范围内推出！
最新重磅消息！
雅思最早将于于2022年初采取线上考试模式，全球范围内的学生都可以进行雅思indicator考试。
雅思作为全球认可度最高的国际英语测试，基本上每一年有超300万人次参加雅思考试。近两年受疫情影响，导致大部分的学生没能顺利进行雅思考试。虽然20年雅思官方推出了 IELTS indicator ，但由于 IELTS indicator考试进行中不需要打开摄像头，所以很多学校对此并不认可，目前已经停止了这种模式，官方网站已查不到任何信息。
为了让全球学生能够进行雅思考试，启用全新的雅思在线考试模式势在必行。从官宣文章我们可以得知以下信息：
1、考试内容？
在线考试内容与雅思纸考、机考相同；
2、口语测试方式？
在线口语测试，将采取与监考在线视频直接对话的形式进行；
3、考试场地？
IELTS Online允许学生可以选择在家或其他符合要求的地点参加考试 ，也可以选择使用电脑、签字笔/铅笔等。全新的在线考试模式将会极大地提升学生参加雅思考试时间和地点的灵活性；
4、成绩公布时间？
考试成绩将在结束后3—5天收到，这个速度远快于IELTS indicator和托福iBT，基本与线下机考速度一致；
5、考试类型？
只有普通A类可以参考，VKVI和G类依旧需要参加线下考试。
6、考试安全与公平？
关于IELTS Online考前与考后的安全性和公平性，雅思官方将会在监考中使用AI，保证雅思线上考试公平安全。
雅思在线考试与纸考、机考内容一致，因此学生不需要去适应新的考试模式，可以按照以往的方式备考，为大家省去更多适应的精力与时间，可以放心备考。
关于可以参加IELTS online的国家和地区，以及报名费用等信息，目前雅思官方还未明确公布。想要了解更多雅思在线考试的最新消息，就请持续关注我们平台吧！

What is Organizational Development and Why is it Important?
SaaS replaces the need to physically purchase, install, and deploy application software throughout an organization. Learn more about SaaS, which is now a mainstay for businesses large and small.
With few exceptions, the IT business tools of the modern enterprise, whether a multinational conglomerate or a one-person operation, revolve around cloud computing and the “something-as-a-service” delivery method.
Network infrastructure, platforms, application software, and everything in between can all be accessed from anywhere, at any time, with nothing more than an internet connection.

While much of the cloud services available replace the need to purchase expensive hardware, Software as a Service (SaaS) supplants the need to physically purchase, install, and deploy application software throughout an organization. In theory, SaaS transfers the costs associated with initial purchase, regular maintenance, and security management to a third-party vendor, which allows the client to expend resources on other, possibly more productive, endeavors.
Put simply, Software-as-a-Service is a licensing model in which access to an application is provided to the customer or client on a subscription basis. A third-party vendor controls access and takes responsibility for security, maintenance, and feature upgrades. The software is located on external servers rather than on servers located in-house and is generally accessed with a web browser over the internet.
While the source code for the SaaS applications is owned and maintained by the vendor, the data going into, and being generated by SaaS applications, is generally the responsibility of the customer or client. The data may be stored locally, in the cloud, or in some combination of both.
