Understanding the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)

The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is an internationally recognized standard that describes language ability. It's used worldwide to define a student's language skills on a scale ranging from A1 for beginners to C2 for those who have mastered the language exceptionally.

This framework makes our exams clear and easy to understand for anyone involved in language teaching and assessment, including both English teachers and students. It also helps educational institutions and companies in Spain easily compare our English qualifications and tests with other types of exams available.
