On the first day of the course, a placement test will be conducted: an oral test for those who have already taken the written test online, and both written and oral tests for those who have not completed the online test.
Absolute beginners can attend an A1.1 level course in February, May, August, and November until December 2026. Starting from January 2027, the A1.1 course will be available in January, April, July, and October. In the remaining months, A1 “ponte” and A1 “lingue vicine” courses will be offered.
For more information, please refer to the course levels structure and the Course Structure page.
