DITALS - Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language

The DITALS Certification is a cultural title issued by the University for Foreigners of Siena that evaluates theoretical and practical preparation in the field of teaching Italian to foreigners and certifies different levels of professional competence in this sector: each candidate can prepare independently in the manner they consider most appropriate for the chosen Certification level.

There are three DITALS Certifications:
- DITALS Basic Certification
- DITALS Level I Certification
- DITALS Level II Certification

The Linguistic Center of the University of Sassari, thanks to the agreement with the University for Foreigners of Siena, is an authorized center for DITALS certification exams. It is therefore possible to attend training courses for DITALS Level I and II certification and take exams for Basic certification, first level certification (DITALS I), and second level certification (DITALS II).
