- FULL REGISTRATION (effective registration for the Language Skills Assessment test):):

  • Full registration link *,, timetable and payment methods with all the details will be send later at the indicated e-mail in the Expression of Interest

 

- LANGUAGE SKILLS ASSESSMENT TEST: The test will consist of a written test** and an online oral test***.

  • **The computer-based test on the Moodle platform, which involves assessing lexical-grammatical, listening and reading comprehension skills, will take place in person and last 30 minutes. It will be limited to the achievement of the levels A2, B1 and B2. Regarding level C1, the computer-based test will last between 2 and 3 hours. The written test will be followed by an oral test via Skype or WebEx with a language expert. 

BE CAREFUL: Please note that starting from January 2024, if eligibility is NOT achieved in the computerized test for the required level, it will no longer be possible to access the oral test and lower level certifications will not be issued (or for the computerized test only)

  • ***The oral test will consist of a free conversation (topics: family, studies, free time, travel, etc.) of approximately 10-30 minutes depending on the chosen level, in which the expert will check fluency, pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary. The expert will evaluate the language proficiency and the results of the two tests (placement test and oral test), and will determine the final level achieved. The University Language Centre will issue a badge (digital certificate) or a digitally signed certificate in the following weeks, attesting the level of proficiency required (or lower if the computer-based test or the oral test does not confirm the level). The relevant certification will not show the result for the four language skills. It will be up to the user to ensure that the certificate is valid for the purpose of which it is intended to be used.
