What score do I need in TOEIC Speaking for a workplace certificate?
There is no pass mark to look up. ETS states that the Speaking and Writing tests are not tests one passes or fails, that it does not set score requirements, and that each institution or agency sets its own standards.
There is no pass mark to look up. ETS states that the Speaking and Writing tests are not tests one passes or fails, that it does not set score requirements, and that each institution or agency sets its own standards. A workplace certificate therefore describes a threshold your employer chose, not a level defined by the exam. Ask for three details in writing: the band, whether it applies to Speaking alone or to Speaking and Writing together, and whether it is a hiring screen or an internal requirement.
Two practical details. ETS treats scores as valid for two years, so a report from an earlier cycle may no longer satisfy a current requirement. And when the requirement is written as a band name rather than a number, ask for the score range behind it, because proficiency labels are not used consistently between employers. Request the answer by email, keep it with your score report, and check whether the same threshold applies to internal moves as to new hires.
