Get Your Language Skills Credentialed!
Language learning takes places in a variety of ways and places. In fact, language learners are quite diverse, and not all language is acquired in a classroom. The Global Seal is now offering the opportunity to have your language skills certified, even if you are not enrolled in a traditional language program. Some bilinguals proudly speak and write a heritage language while others are learning language independently to meet personal and professional goals. Language learning isn’t bound by age or any demographic; communicating with others in a non-native tongue is a rewarding experience that allows us to connect, see another’s perspective and build intercultural relationships.The Global Seal is THRILLED to announce that individuals of any age may now apply for, test, and receive a serial-numbered Global Seal of Biliteracy language credential. This is an exciting opportunity for bilinguals to discover where they are on the language proficiency pathway. Recipients can use their Global Seal certificate to highlight their language skills on academic and employment applications and the credential can be added to a curriculum vitae or LinkedIn profile. Each serial-numbered certificate indicates their languages and level of language proficiency using the ACTFL scale. Partner with us to get out the word to bilinguals that you know. If you need some inspiration, individuals that we know will benefit from having their language skills documented include:
1. High School & University Students (in or out of language classes)
2. Translators & Interpreters (or those who hope to become one)
3. Global Business Professionals
4. Medical Professionals
5. Online Language App Learners
6. International Travel & Study Abroad
7. Adult Learners
8. Polyglots
This list goes on and on – Teachers, Heritage Language users, bilinguals in legal and public service or the travel industry, etc. Please share this incredible opportunity with those you know who might qualify at one of our three levels of certification. Though we don’t cover the cost of testing, our credentialing process is completely FREE – no matter who or where you are in the world.
