Language certificates can open doors to an international career or a study placement abroad. Even in German universities, proof of language proficiency in English is increasingly required for English-taught programs. Whether it's for your career or studies, the Cambridge Institute in Munich undoubtedly offers the right language examination.
Cambridge language exams have been an integral part of the examination program at the Cambridge Institute in Munich since its founding year in 1961. Cambridge certificates are acquired annually in 135 countries and are recognized proof of qualified English language skills by educational institutions and companies worldwide.
Planning to study in the UK or Australia? Then the popular IELTS test is a suitable choice, which you can regularly take at the Cambridge Institute. You can also certify your language proficiency level with us using the TOEFL test, which is preferred for studying abroad at American universities.
LanguageCert represents a new generation of language examinations that allow candidates to conveniently obtain a recognized English language certificate from the comfort of their homes and receive results within just a few days.
The SELT (Secure English Language Test) examinations required for UK entry and visa purposes are also conducted at the Cambridge Institute.
In general, all language proficiency tests align their results with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), but they do so in different ways.
The C1 Advanced is the most sought-after English test for non-native speakers by the University of Cambridge and sets the goal level at C1, which you need to achieve. In contrast, the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) test by the British Council is based on a point system that translates into an equivalent language proficiency level. Both the C1 Advanced and IELTS language exams originate from the UK, while the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) test was developed in the United States.
As a tendency, it can be said that C1 Advanced and IELTS are more commonly accepted in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, while TOEFL is often considered a more suitable entry ticket for the USA. However, this is not always the case.
