We’ve developed a standardized scale for all the languages we teach so we can measure your existing language abilities. Ranging from 1 (beginner) to 10 (professional), our Berlitz scale will measure your level of language comprehension and practical skills.

Once you complete a needs analysis survey and chat with one of our friendly staff, you’ll build a learning path that will map your journey through the Berlitz language levels to ensure you meet your personal goals.

For organisations using language proficiency levels to screen and place candidates, our Language Assessment & Hiring Tools help talent teams validate candidate proficiency accurately before making hiring decisions.
