Registrations now open for the ‘Certificate of Attainment in Greek Language’ exams 

·

Registrations for the examinations for the 2025 Certificate of Attainment in Greek language are now open. The examinations for the 2025 Certificate of Attainment in Greek language will take place in May this year at the Greek Community of Melbourne, Examination Centre of Melbourne, Code No: 61007.

The Certificate of Attainment in Greek is the only national certificate, officially recognised by the Greek Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs, that confirms the knowledge of Greek as a foreign/second language, starting from A1, for children 8-12 years old, to C2. 

Candidates who have reached the age of 8 on 31 May of the current year are eligible. 

In particular, for level A1:

  • Those children who are not over 12 years of age on 31 May may sit the A1 level examinations for children aged 8-12 years
  • All children over 12 years of age on 31 May may sit the A1 level examinations for adolescents/adults.

There is no other age restriction for all other levels. It is recommended that candidates under the age of 16 should not seek to sit the B2, C1 and C2 level examinations, as the content of the examination questions requires knowledge and experience that younger candidates do not possess.

We would like to inform you that registrations are to be processed electronically through the electronic registration system available at: http://www.greek-language.gr/certification/application/index.html

This environment gives candidates access to the May 2025 application and questionnaire. However, in extreme circumstances, if this is not possible, you can apply on a paper application form.
