What is SIELE?
SIELE is the International Assessment Service for the Spanish Language, promoted by the Spanish Instituto Cervantes, the University of Mexico, the University of Salamanca and the University of Buenos Aires.

SIELE certifies the proficiency of the Spanish language with four tests: reading comprehension, listening comprehension, written expression and oral expression and interaction based on the levels established by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1).

The duration of the tests is as follows:

Reading comprehension: 60 minutes

Listening comprehension: 55 minutes

Written expression and interaction: 50 minutes

Oral expression and interaction: 15-20 minutes

The SIELE exam is managed entirely electronically. The registration, the exam, information of the results and  the certification report goes via Internet. Candidates obtain the results and the certificate within a maximum term of three weeks.

Where and when do I sit the SIELE exam?
The full exam will be completed electronically at our school. We will make available to the candidate's the required computer resources and will supervise the development of the exam.

Candidates may make an appointment with us via https://siele.org/reservas

Die zwei Wochen Herbstferien verbrachte ich in Granada/Andalusien zum C1-Spanischkurs. Wir waren drei Teilnehmer: Eine tunesische Ärztin, die in der Schweiz studiert hatte und beim Internationalen Roten Kreuz festangestellt ist und ein sehr junger Brite aus England. Sara kam gerade von einem zweijährigen Einsatz im Irak zurück, und Tim aus Djuba/Südsudan, wo er bei Oxfam arbeitete.
