What is the CEFR?

The CEFR describes language activities and competences at six main levels: A1 (the lowest) through A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2 (the highest). The levels include can-do statements, which describe in a positive way what language learners can do when they use a language, rather than what they cannot do.

The CEFR proficiency scales provide a convenient structure for thinking about and communicating a progression of language proficiency and for considering where people stand in relation to that progression. Therefore, mapping language test scores onto the CEFR levels is a useful way to assign practical meaning to those scores. ETS has conducted several studies to facilitate the interpretation of the scores of the language tests it develops in relation to the CEFR levels.
