Introduction: What is the ALCPT? The American Language Course Placement Test (ALCPT) is a standardized English proficiency exam developed by the Defense Language Institute English Language Center (DLI-ELC). Used primarily by the U.S. military and allied forces, the ALCPT assesses listening and reading comprehension for non-native English speakers. Scoring well is critical for soldiers, airmen, and international military students seeking admission to technical training programs, professional military education, or English language courses.
