ABOUT OUR CERTIFICATES

Fluent Academy (FLAC) is not an accredited examination body. Students who pass their final assessment with 60% or above receive a Fluent Academy Completion Certificate. This is a recognition of your hard work and progress through the course and is not an internationally accredited qualification. For accredited German certifications, we recommend and prepare students for the Goethe-Institut exams.
