Dutch Exam Preparation Courses (CNaVT)

Gain internationally recognised Dutch qualifications

At Babel, we offer specialist preparation for learners working toward internationally recognised Dutch language qualifications. Whether your team needs Dutch for everyday communication, professional interaction or relocation to a Dutch-speaking environment, our tailored training ensures you develop the skills, strategies and confidence required to excel.

The primary internationally respected Dutch exam is the CNaVT (Certificaat Nederlands als Vreemde Taal). Endorsed by the Dutch and Flemish Ministries of Education and used by universities, employers and government bodies, CNaVT certification provides formal proof of Dutch proficiency for study or employment.

CNaVT assessments evaluate practical communication across the key language skills, reading, writing, listening and speaking, and are aligned with the CEFR framework from A2 to C1. Different exam profiles reflect real-life needs: functioning in daily situations, participating in a Dutch-speaking workplace, or communicating effectively in academic contexts.

Our customised Dutch exam preparation programmes are designed to:

• Introduce learners to the structure, expectations and scoring criteria of the CNaVT exam
• Strengthen competence across all four skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing
• Build robust strategies for task management, accuracy and time efficiency
• Expand vocabulary, grammatical control and fluency to meet higher-level demands

For professionals, earning a CNaVT qualification demonstrates not just language progress but practical readiness to operate within Dutch-speaking environments. It shows the capability to participate in meetings, handle written communication, interpret detailed information and engage confidently with Dutch colleagues or clients.
