I am planning to move to Canada soon. I have completed all my education in English medium. I have given IELTS three times academic and 1 time General Training. The academic results are expired and I have come to know that there is no seats till August for IELTS academic. Please help is there any other means for education.

Depending on what you are applying for, TOEFL will work too, although IELTS is the one preferred for Canadian PR. I did my TOEFL when I came to Canada to study which was fine for my student permit etc. Check with your school.

I've wondered about that...

I've got an expired TOEFL iBT (110 out of 120). I also have a CPE (Proficiency Certificate from England's Cambridge University), which is actually the highest level exam available, it's C2-level, rather than IETLS' C1-level. And, yet, I can't use it for immigration purposes and I'd have to spend a bunch of money to take yet another exam...

They should be open to other (equivalent or superior) exams!
