Abstract

At the Centre of Foreign Language Intensive Teaching (CEIL) of Hassiba Benbouali University (UHBC), a placement test had always been delivered to newly registered candidates for an English course for the first time. This test had mainly been based on a four-skill package designed to place students in classes appropriate to their proficiency levels. However, this type of testing proved to be time-consuming, costly, and debatable in terms of pertinence as most test takers estimated their knowledge of English as basic when completing the online pre-registering form. With this in mind, the team of test developers has designed an online grammar-vocabulary placement test instead of a complete four-skill package test. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to determine how accurate the online language knowledge placement test was at placing learners at their appropriate levels according to the CEFR descriptors.
