NAATI CCL New Test Formats
Are you getting restless thinking about those extra 5 PR points? On top since last week, NAATI gave notice on conducting the exam. They have changed the NAATI Test format due to COVID19. NAATI CCL Test Format for 2021 is online-based and will be taken online with certain rules to be followed by the test takers.
You’re probably aware that NAATI exams have always involved face to face interaction between the examiner and the candidate. NAATI CCL tests are a formal translation test that requires certain decorums. NAATI CCL Test Format for the year 2021 is online due to the pandemic COVID-19.
But in recent months, there’s been a frightful scenario caused by the pandemic COVID-19 disease. And various restrictions have been imposed regarding business meets and gatherings. We should be wise and abide by these impositions to keep ourselves and fellow citizens out of danger.
It’s time to put our health and safety first. We cannot risk more lives and cause more damage. Think about those who are fighting on the frontline not caring about their family and health, our Nurses, Doctors, Janitors, and other medical staff.
Considering the situation, NAATI has announced to make changes regarding the NAATI CCL test format by taking it online and making it convenient for the candidates who are willing to appear for the test. For those who have their test in this month and are pensive on not getting a call from NAATI to schedule the online test, don’t worry you will get the call soon.
But if you are unsure how this new test format will work out then stay connected with us in our Whatsapp group for more information.
