Is there something spooky about CILS Italian language exams?

October 24, 2014 by Daniel

If you’re living in Italy or learning Italian, one word you simply must know is ‘proroga‘.

Why?

Well, when for example the Italian government sets a deadline for, say, tax returns, or introduces a new ‘simplified’ system for doing this or that, the result tends to be confusion and delay.

Lobby groups get to work pointing out that more time is needed. No WAY will Joe Public be able to file by then…

And so, as if this had never happened before and couldn’t possibly have been predicted, a ‘proroga’ is announced. No need to pay your taxes just yet. You now have until…

Anyway, the deadline for enrolling for a CILS Italian language exam was yesterday (24th October).

But then, yesterday, an e-mail arrived from the organisers announcing a ‘proroga’ (extension).

Obviously, this plays hell with our marketing.

But it does mean that if you’re interested in certifying your knowledge of Italian, but hadn’t gotten around to organising a trip to Bologna in December, you now have seven more days.

So, make a note on your To-Do list:

– the new latest enrollment date for the December CILS exams is now 31st October!

There’s something spooky about that, isn’t there?

(For more information on adding an Italian language qualification to your resume, go here. Sign up in person at our Italian language school in Bologna, or do it online in our ‘shop‘.)

P.S.

A second proroga is extremely rare, so act now!

October 15, 2014 by Daniel

Think how your resume would stand out from the crowd if you gained an internationally-recognised certificate showing the level you have reached in Italian.

Plus, signing up to take a CILS (Certificazione di Italiano come Lingua Straniera) exam at our Italian language school in Bologna this December will also give you an excellent reason to study.

Take a course at our school immediately before or after your exam and we’ll even discount your course by the cost of the level A1 or A2 exam. In effect, you’ll pay for the course but take your exam for free!

The deadline for CILS enrollments is just 10 days from now: 24th October.
