WHAT IS THE CILS CERTIFICATION EXAM?
There are six different proficiency levels officially recognized by the Common European Framework of References for Languages, which translate into six different CILS certification exams and, subsequently, six CILS diplomas, that are valid throughout the world and never expire..The CILS exams (A1 A2 B1 B2 C1 C2) can be taken by anyone who might be interested, students and/or professionals.
Candidates may take more than one diploma (e.g. after an A2 certificate you can take the exam again to get a superior level certificate). Candidates who do not pass the entire exam in one session have 3 attempts (18 months) left to retake the parts that they have not passed. They will pay the fee only for the portion of the test they have failed. This option is not conceded to the candidates taking the B1 Cittadinanza exam.
CILS EXAMS LEVELS:
A1 and A2 Beginner levels; B1 low intermediate; B2 high intermediate (INDEPENDENT USER OF THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE)
C1 advanced; C2 proficiency (PROFICIENT USER OF THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE)
Please note that level B2 is valid also as language exam for admittance to any Italian University without the need for further testing, and that, with the C2 level certification, you can apply for the position of official translator from Italian into English, in several countries.
