MOI (Medium Of Instruction)

What Is an MOI Certificate?

MOI is a certificate from your university/education institution stating what language was used as a medium of instruction within a given course of study (usually in English) and confirms that you have studied in the English language. Many foreign institutions, employers, and immigration authorities ask for MOIs to verify the language of instruction while you have been studying. An MOI will assist an organization to determine if you meet their language requirements without having to make assumptions as to what language medium of instruction you have studied.

When Is an MOI Certificate Required?

MOI certificates are sometimes required for applications for higher education abroad. Other uses include immigration programs, professional licensing, and employment overseas. Many foreign universities require the MOI to provide supporting evidence of language proficiency when English is the language of instruction. Some universities may allow for the MOI certificate to be considered a substitute for language tests, but there is no uniformity regarding this. Having an MOI certificate that has been issued by an authorized body strengthens your application and facilitates receiving decisions from the receiving body in an expedited manner.
