General Spanish Language Certificates
TELC and D.E.LE. diplomas at Centro Humboldt

The European language certificates TELC

The European Language Certificates are language examinations at four levels of the Council of Europe's Common European Framework and are recognised all over Europe.  The language certificates are a language examination system based on the "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages" of the Council of Europe.

Centro Humboldt Barcelona is a licensed TELC examination centre offering Spanish examinations for levels A1, A2, B1 and B2.

telc language certificates are international and recognised all over Europe. They are proof that you have acquired a specific level of communicative skills in the language you are learning. In addition to this, they demonstrate your language skills in a meaningful way that other people, for example personnel managers, teachers, professors and many other people in more and more countries in Europe can easily understand - regardless of how old you are or why you are learning the language or have taken the examination - whether for school or career purposes, for your studies or just for fun.

All telc language examinations are fully in line with the skill-based level descriptions of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), no matter where you take the examination or who your examiner is. This reliability is a valuable asset of great significance for all people learning or teaching a language. There are many language tests on the market today. But telc certificates with their 7,000 trained examiners guarantee a standardised international assessment system.

This is why telc examinations always give you an objective and accurate basis for an assessment of your language skills. With telc, you can be sure that the examination you are taking is state of the art in terms of language research and test development procedures. Quality assurance is a ‘must’, telc with their 40 years of experience in language testing is your guarantee.

Language skills are one of the keys to success, today more than ever before. A telc certificate helps you to make use of the opportunities you have.

The D.E.L.E. Diplomas

The DELEs (Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera), issued by the  Instituto Cervantes  on behalf of Spain’s Ministry of Education, offer official accreditation of mastery of the Spanish language for citizens of countries in which Spanish is not the official language. Over 150.000 people have taken the DELE exams in ninety countries and three hundred fifty cities throughout the world. The Diplomas are recognized by official institutions of Spanish – speaking countries and, increasingly, by corporations, chambers of commerce, and educational institutions in Europe and the United States. Several American universities award course credit for the diplomas or require them of Spanish majors.

At Centro Humboldt Barcelona, centre authorised by the Instituto Cervantes, you can take the official DELE general language exams.

The examinations, offered at three levels, test your ability to read, write, speak and understand Spanish.  
The exam for obtaining the DELEs (Inicial, Intermedio and Superior) consists of five tests: reading comprehension, written expression, listening comprehension, grammar and vocabulary, and oral expression. The grade "no apto" (unsatisfactory) in one of the sections will imply the candidate's failure in the entire exam. All parts should be retaken at a future date.
