- Please check here how CyberItalian grades students
After successful completion of a course and upon request, tutored students receive the CyberItalian Certificate of Participation.
Please note: If you want to obtain a language proficiency certification officially recognized by the Italian government, you have to take the CELI exam (provided by the University of Foreigners of Perugia) or CILS exam (provided by the University of Foreigners of Siena). These exams can be taken in Italy (at the Universities for Foreigners of Perugia or Siena) or outside of Italy (at the Italian Cultural Institutes available in more than a hundred cities in different countries). Other universities are now offering official certifications.
Prices vary depending if the course is fully tutored by a CyberItalian teacher or by a school teacher. Group discounts are available (for 10 or more students). Public schools may apply for further discounts.
