The Goethe Institut is the cultural institute of Germany with a global reach.
We are an examination centre for Goethe Institut qualifications awarded and recognised worldwide. These qualifications are in line with the Common European Framework of Reference for languages and range from A1 for beginners to C2 for language skills at advanced level. Goethe Institut examinations are well known throughout the world and the associated certificates are accepted as a qualification by employers and further education institutions in many countries.
At Languages for All, we run language courses that can help you prepare for these examinations. These language courses are for undergraduate and postgraduate students and members of staff at the University of Birmingham.
Timetable
Examinations take place throughout the year, with registrations accepted up to two weeks prior to the exams. The next examinations for A2 and B1 at the University of Birmingham take place on 18 September 2024.
