Please therefore check the course dates on our website, which are updated weekly.
Intermediate and advanced level B2 and C1
After reaching language level B1 (Zertifikat Deutsch), participants can expand and deepen their German by reaching level B2 after a further 200 lessons. This level is needed by participants who are interested in vocational training or further education in Germany and want to advance their careers.
Anyone who wants to study at a university may need to prove C1 Hochschule (C1HS) level. This should be clarified in advance directly with the institution concerned. We only offer C1 courses. The telc C1HS exam can be taken with us, but without a preparatory course.
Taking part in B2 and C1 courses
To ensure our courses are homogeneous in terms of ability, it is important to find out the language level of each interested participant before the respective course begins.
The procedure is as follows:
- To take part in a B2 course, participants need proof that they have already completed a B1 course or passed a B1 exam.
- To take part in a C1 course, participants need proof that they have already completed a B2 course or passed a B2 exam.
