FEDELE

Our school Camino Barcelona is an active member of FEDELE association, with our teachers both regularly preparing DELE exam papers and working as DELE examiners for DELE exams in Barcelona.

What is FEDELE?

FEDELE is the Spanish Federation of Associations of Schools of Spanish as a Foreign Language. The institution is made up of 90 schools.

Since it was founded in 2004, FEDELE has supported quality and excellence in the teaching of Spanish and in all of the services offered by its schools.

FEDELE's main objective is to promote a status of quality in the Teaching of Spanish in Spain. All federated schools have obtained the quality stamp in the field of Spanish Teaching (Accreditation Certificate from Instituto Cervantes).

Through the agreement signed by the Cervantes Institute, FEDELE is the partnering institution for the realisation of DELE exams and has exam centres in various Spanish cities. The DELE examination (Los Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera – Certificate of Spanish as a Foreign Language) is the only international qualification of the Spanish Ministery of Education which is recognised all over the world by private companies, chambers of commerce and public and private educational institutions.

The DELE preparation course is a specific course offered by Camino Barcelona in order to provide students with support in the different language areas as well as practical information and advice concerning the official exams.

Doing a DELE preparation course helps the student to take the test with a greater sense of safety and certainty.

The DELE preparation courses are offered by the FEDELE schools throughout the year and, more frequently and only subject to prior booking, in May, August and November.

As well as consulting the school for timetables and prices, students can also be advised in Camino Barcelona on the appropriate Spanish level and the application procedure.
