ALTE

Association of Language Testers in Europe

The ALTE (Association of Language Testers in Europe) “Can Do” project developed a simplified set of 400+ descriptors for language examinations which relate to the Common Reference Levels. These descriptors are in the form of “can-do statements”, each saying more simply what a learner can do at every level. The Common European Framework divides learners into three broad divisions which can be divided into six levels:

A Basic User

—————————————
