I. Apakah TOEIC® Test?
Sejak kira-kira tahun 2004-2005, dunia pendidikan SMK seolah mendapat orientasi baru dalam mempersiapkan lulusan SMK yang berbobot dan sanggup bersaing di percaturan dunia kerja global, khususnya di bidang pembelajaran bahasa Inggris. Kemampuan berbahasa Inggris lulusan SMK mulai diukur dengan menggunakan TOEIC® sebagai sebuah standar kriteria baru. Belakangan, dunia perguruan tinggi, yang selama ini hanya akrab dengan TOEFL, juga mulai memperkenalkan TOEIC® untuk mempersiapkan mahasiswa memasuki dunia kerja.

TOEIC® adalah singkatan dari Test of English For International Communication. TOEIC® dikembangkan oleh Educational Testing Service (ETS) yang bermarkas di Princeton, New Jersey. ETS adalah sebuah organisasi non-profit yang menyelenggarakan tes-tes seperti TOEFL dan GRE. TOEIC® dirancang secara khusus sebagai tes untuk mengukur kecakapan berbahasa Inggris dalam konteks dunia kerja internasional. Sejak tahun 1979, TOEIC® telah menjadi standar penilaian kemampuan berbahasa Inggris para pekerja yang menggunakan bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing. Sekarang, lebih dari 1,5 juta tes TOEIC® diselenggarakan di berbagai penjuru dunia setiap tahunnya.
