Course objectives
The course “Comunicare in italiano” is meant to welcome the international students and help them feel at ease in the Italian cultural and linguistic context. The course is organized by the University Language Center (CLA-UniTO) and it is composed of 2 yearly levels (Beginner and Intermediate). Students who successfully complete the course will be entitled to ECTS credits and to an “Open Badge”, that is to say, a digital certificate stating the CEFR level and the skills acquired. They will then be able to access the course “ITALIAN FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL SSD NN” in the subsequent academic year.
