Keele Certificate of Language Competence (CLC)
Learners who successfully complete at least four 15-credit modules, reaching stage 6, in Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian or Spanish at Keele will be awarded the Keele Certificate of Language Competence (CLC).

Learners who reach stage 10 in French or German at Keele will be awarded the Keele Certificate of Advanced Language Competence (CALC).
All Keele students taking a language module can be enrolled on the CLC/CALC award programme free of charge.
