SIELE (International Assessment Service for the Spanish Language) is the most comprehensive, versatile, and prestigious system for assessing and certifying Spanish language proficiency.
SIELE evaluates Spanish proficiency through four tests:
The exam is based on the levels established by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). SIELE is a single, multi-level exam that provides candidates with a certificate, which includes a score from 0 to 1000. This score is based on the combined results of all four tests and corresponds to a CEFR level.
The reliability of the SIELE exam is ensured by four prestigious institutions: the Instituto Cervantes, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Universidad de Salamanca, and Universidad de Buenos Aires.
Exam management, administration, and scoring are all handled through a streamlined, technology-driven process, ensuring simplicity, convenience, and speed throughout the certification journey. Candidates can easily select their preferred exam modality, choose Costa Rica as their location, and pick the most convenient date via siele.org. At ILISA, we offer exam sessions every Friday, year-round.
After completing the exam, you will receive your certificate or report on the same website within three weeks.
To help you prepare for either the SIELE or DELE exam, ILISA offers specialized courses aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1). These courses are designed to help you build the skills needed for success. Before starting your classes, we will assess your current Spanish level to identify areas for improvement.
