People learning Spanish who need an objective that will help them to keep a study routine home.
SIELE Certificate
These exams are promoted by the Instituto Cervantes and three universities. The exams are much more flexible in their structure. However, the certificate is valid for five years and it is not as widely recognised as the DELE diplomas.
