Classification of language courses in line with the Common European Framework of Reference

The courses offered by the Language Center are organized in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). The six levels ranging from A1 (beginners with no prior knowledge) through A2, B1, B2, C1 to C2 (native-speaker proficiency) form the reference framework applicable across Europe. Some courses cover one level, e.g. A1, while others cover partial levels, e.g. A1 Part 1, A1 Part 2.
