Recipients: Participation is free and open only to winners of Erasmus+ mobility or another type of exchange agreement (in this latter case, compatibly with the dates and deadlines already foreseen for the courses).
Every student can participate in one course. The possibility of participating in a second course is subject to the availability of places and priority is given to absolute beginners. 

Languages: English, French, Portuguese*, Spanish, German.

Courses periods: usually from the end of May to 30 September (excluding August).

Courses structure: The total duration of the course is 30 academic hours, spread over 3-5 weeks.

Certificates: At the end of the course students who have attended at least 70% of the lessons receive a certificate of attendance, NOT stating their proficiency level. Students who need a certificate assessing their level must read the information below.

Language proficiency level

ENGLISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, SPANISH: students who need a certificate assessing their proficiency level to submit to the partner university must take the TAL tests in one of the sessions dedicated to Erasmus out winners: Erasmus OUTGOING tests. Level tests and language courses are two separate and independent activities.

PORTUGUESE: the certificate of attendance issued at the end of the Portuguese course will also contain an indication of the level achieved by the individual student and can serve as a level certificate to be presented at the destination institution. The level will be assessed with a small profit test scheduled at the end of the course. Students who need to submit to the partner University a certificate assessing their level before the beginning of the courses must contact the students’ office (didattica.cla@unipd.it).
