The program sequence consists of:

  • Self-assessments, including written and oral activities, to evaluate your progress throughout the program.

Level C

This program – Level C (PFL2 – C) is intended for advanced learners who have sufficient mastery of the language elements taught in levels A and B. Its goal is to develop skills and achieve linguistic performance to meet the competency objectives of level C.​
