What is a language certificate?
A language certificate is a document certifying that a person speaks a certain foreign language at a specific level. To obtain such a certificate, one must first take a language exam. The exam consists of two parts: written and oral. During the written part, grammatical, lexical, and listening and reading comprehension skills are tested. The oral part consists of a conversation with the examiner on a topic chosen by the examiner.
Where can I get a language certificate?
Any student who wants to prepare for the defense of their thesis must pass a language exam, for which they receive a language certificate. This exam is preceded by language lessons, where the student chooses the language they want to take the exam in. It is also possible to obtain a language certificate privately, independently of the university, by enrolling in a language school. People who have a valid student ID often receive discounts on class fees and exams. For the ID to be valid, it must have stickers with the current hologram attached.
What benefits come with having a language certificate?
Possessing a language certificate is welcomed by employers and offers other opportunities. Students who want to go on an exchange abroad as part of their studies or internships must have such a certificate. Without it, they may not be admitted to the recruitment process. Possessing such a certificate also allows them to study in a language other than Polish.
