Proficiency levels
There is a worldwide standard for describing language proficiency called the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). It employs a six-point scale, with A1 for beginners and C2 for language learners, to describe language competency. Anyone involved in language instruction and assessment, including students and teachers, is able to swiftly evaluate the quality of various certifications thanks to this. Businesses and academic institutions would easily be able to contrast our credentials with those gained through other assessments in their nation.
The six levels of CEFR are
- A1
- A2
- B1
- B2
- C1
- C2
