Keele Certificate of Language Competence and Certificate of Advanced Language Competence

Learners who successfully complete at least four 15-credit modules in a foreign language at Keele will be awarded the Keele Certificate of Language Competence in French/German/Japanese/Russian/Spanish (CLC), if they reach level 6 in the chosen language, or the Keele Certificate of Advanced Language Competence in French/ German (CALC) if they reach level 10.

If you start at absolute beginners' level it would normally take you three years to achieve the CLC; if you already have some language skills, you could acquire it after two years of classes.

All Keele students taking a language module can be enrolled on the CLC/CALC award programme free of charge. There is an administration fee of £30 for the award Certificate for external learners and staff. 

In an increasingly competitive and international labour market, an official language qualification will be a great addition to your CV.
