Tasks of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (GER)

The Common European Framework of Reference deals with the assessment of progress in learning outcomes regarding a foreign language. The aim is to make the different European language certificates comparable and to create a standard for acquiring language skills.

The levels of the GER

The basic levels are:

A: Basic user

B: Independent user
