What is the SIELE?

The SIELE (International Spanish Language Evaluation Service) is a fast, flexible, and fully digital way to certify your Spanish language level. Unlike the DELE exam, which has fixed dates and a pass/fail system, the SIELE provides a certificate that reflects your exact level of proficiency. It is internationally recognized and completely online, making it highly accessible and efficient.


Why choose the SIELE?

  • 100% digital – The entire process, from registration to receiving your certificate, is done online.

  • Flexible – You can choose to take the full exam or focus on individual language skills.

  • Fast results – Receive your certificate within a maximum of three weeks.

  • International recognition – Backed by leading institutions such as Instituto Cervantes, UNAM, the University of Salamanca, and the University of Buenos Aires.
