How the content is made and checked
- Original questions in the official format. Every question is written for Celpip.me to follow CELPIP-General task types, timing and layout. None is a real CELPIP test question, and we have no access to real test content.
- Marked on the published criteria. Sample answers and lessons are built on the four rating dimensions CELPIP publishes for each of Writing and Speaking, and levels are given on the CLB scale.
- Official facts come from official pages. Fees, score requirements and immigration rules are taken from Paragon (celpip.ca) and the Government of Canada (canada.ca), and the pages that state them name the source and the date it was checked.
- Counts are read, not typed. The numbers of questions, tests and lessons on the site come from the live content database.
- What a person does not review. When you submit your own Writing or Speaking answer, it is marked by AI on the official criteria and the result is an estimated CLB level, not an official score. How the AI marking works →
