If you do not have an official certificate, you must do a placement test. Consult the third option.

You have to do a placement test if you have:

• never done a course at the CPNL
• you don't have any official certificate that certifies your level of Catalan
• you have not taken a placement test at CPNL in the last two years

If one of these cases applies to you, you have to do a placement test to be able to enrol on a Catalan course.

Relevant information:

• The aim of the placement test, which is valid for a maximum of 2 years, is to assign each student to the most appropriate course according to their level. Doing the test does not guarantee a place on the courses. The result of the test is not considered a language qualification.
• Those interested in the Proficiency level (C2) who do not have the Advanced certificate (C1) of the CPNL or the SPL (formerly DGPL) must take a placement test.
• The test is free and can be done online or at the nearest test centre.
