IIG Vietnam

What IIG Vietnam does

IIG Vietnam (Công ty Cổ phần IIG Việt Nam, founded 2000, headquartered in Hanoi) is the exclusive national representative in Vietnam for several global educational testing and certification bodies, most notably ETS (TOEFL, TOEIC, GRE), Certiport (Microsoft Office Specialist, IC3, Adobe, Autodesk, Apple Swift), Sanako, Prometric, EMA, and ICD. Through this portfolio it administers 30+ international standardized assessments spanning English proficiency (TOEIC, TOEFL Primary/Junior/ITP/iBT), IT and digital literacy (MOS, IC3, ACPro, MCE, Apple Swift, Autodesk, ITS, MCF, CCST, UCU, Intuit), business skills (Meta Digital Marketing, ESB, CSB, PMI-PMR, Generative AI Foundations), and academic/other tests (SAT, SSAT, GRE, CFA, AP, TOPIK, Japanese proficiency). It also runs national competitions (MOS World Championship Vietnam, ACP World Championship Vietnam, TOEFL Challenge) co-organized with the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union and provincial Departments of Education.

The technology stack consists of an online test registration platform (online.iigvietnam.com, 100% digital registration rolled out April 2025), a self-serve e-learning platform (elearning.iigvietnam.com) offering TOEIC/TOEFL/MOS preparation courses and Gmetrix-based simulation practice tests, and computer-based exam delivery infrastructure that supports the migrated TOEFL ITP format (January 2026). IIG owns three offices in Vietnam (Hanoi HQ, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City), wholly-owned subsidiaries in Laos and Myanmar, and a test center at the Aii Language Center in Cambodia. Revenue comes from three streams: per-exam registration fees (transactional), online test-prep course and practice-tool sales (recurring/self-serve), and teacher training plus enterprise training programs (professional services). Customers span individual students (primary segment), educational institutions (signed under MOU partnerships), enterprises (500+ partners), and government bodies including Vietnam's Ministry of Education and Training.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Prometric: Global test delivery network administering certification and licensure exams in 180+ countries. Already a minor partner of IIG Vietnam; directly comparable as a competing test-delivery infrastructure provider for the same international certification vendors.
• ETS (Educational Testing Service): Creator and owner of TOEFL, TOEIC, GRE, and other assessments that IIG Vietnam administers. IIG is its country representative in Vietnam; ETS is the indirect partner and a partial alternative channel if it ever went direct-to-candidate in market.
• IDP Education: ASX-listed international education services company co-owner of IELTS with British Council and Cambridge, operating IELTS test centres and student placement services in Vietnam. Comparable as a leading international testing services provider targeting the same candidate pool for English proficiency certifications.
• Pearson VUE: Global computer-based testing operator for IT, healthcare, and professional certification exams, including Certiport (which IIG Vietnam represents). Comparable as the parent/distribution backbone for many of the same IT certifications (MOS, IC3, Adobe) that IIG administers in Vietnam.
• British Council: Global British cultural and educational organisation that administers IELTS, Aptis, and other English proficiency tests across 100+ countries, including Vietnam. Directly comparable as an international testing body with its own physical test centres and authorised venues competing for the same English certification demand that IIG serves via TOEIC/TOEFL.

Regional players

• Wall Street English: International English language training franchise with centres across Southeast Asia including Vietnam. Comparable as a premium English-upskilling provider that overlaps with IIG's exam-prep learner base.
• VUS (Vietnam USA Society English Centers): One of the largest private English language training chains in Vietnam, preparing students for TOEIC, IELTS, and TOEFL. Comparable as a domestic competitor for test-prep and certification-driven English learning, though focused on training rather than test administration.
• Apollo English: Major English-language training provider in Vietnam with 40+ centres, offering courses aligned to international English certifications. Comparable as a Vietnam-centric English and IT training operator that competes for the same test-prep and certification upskilling wallet.

Direct peers

• Sanako: Finnish edtech vendor of language lab and teaching software in 100+ countries. IIG is Sanako's country representative in Vietnam since 2009; comparable as the global partner whose products IIG distributes alongside its testing business.
• Certiport: Pearson VUE business and global administrator of MOS, IC3, Adobe, Autodesk, Apple Swift, and Intuit certifications. Direct peer: IIG is Certiport's country representative in Vietnam since 2010, and the two are commercially intertwined across IIG's largest IT certification lines.
