DELE Overview

What The DELE Certification Is

The DELE exam, which stands for Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera, offers official titles that signify a person's competency and mastery of the Spanish language. The Spanish Instituto Cervantes issues these prestigious certifications on behalf of the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science to individuals who successfully pass a standardised test of European Spanish.

As an internationally recognised public exam, the DELE certificate is the only official Spanish proficiency credential acknowledged not just by the Spanish government but also by several other Spanish-speaking governments around the world. In Singapore, it has become a valued prerequisite for non-native speakers across academic and professional settings.
