How can I obtain the results of my language assessment and retrieve a certificate?

The Online Language Support (OLS) language assessment provides you with a recommendation of which language level to enrol in and a certificate of the assessment. You can take a language assessment as many times as you wish to monitor your progress with OLS.  

If you have already completed a language assessment, you can find your results and download a certificate of the assessment by following the steps below:

If you have not completed a language assessment, follow the steps below to obtain your results and download a certificate:  

  1. Click on the language assessment in your chosen OLS language community. 

  1. The test will take 10-45 minutes depending on your level. You can end the test at any time. Click "Start assessment" to begin the test and then follow the instructions.
