In our Italian language schools, students may assess their Italian language qualification, since the Piccola Università Italiana is an authorized examination centre for various Italian proficiency exams, covering all the above-mentioned language levels:
On our Campus in Trieste we are authorized to conduct
– the Certificate of Italian as a Foreign Language from the University of Siena (CILS) and
– the Proficiency certificate in Italian language from the University of Perugia (CELI).
On our Campus in Tropea we are authorized to conduct

Our examination preparation course can either be booked as an Italian intensive course or as private Italian lessons.
