Context: The Duolingo English Test (DET) was launched in 2016, by Duolingo, the world’s most popular language-learning platform. Duolingo’s mission is to leverage technology in order to lower barriers to education. The DET, as an extension of this mission, is an innovative and accessible English proficiency assessment for today's international students and educational institutions. Available online, on demand, students can certify their English from their computer—no appointments or travel to test centers needed. In addition, the DET is an opportunity for students to showcase their English skills through a video interview, and writing sample, beyond just a proficiency score.

Over 5500 educational institutions worldwide already accept the DET, as equivalents to other traditional tests such as the IELTS or TOEFL.



The Duolingo English Test offers different kinds of training programs for stakeholders, such as agents, counselors and coaching centers in the study abroad ecosystem, to help them learn more about the test and how they can help their students prepare to take the DET.
