We understand that for many people, it is difficult to commit to a six-monthly or annual course with out-of-class dedication hours and exams. For this reason UPF Languages offers the English modular program with no rush. This program consists of face-to-face quarterly courses of 30 hours. Since the program is modular, you can choose to take one, two, or three courses in the same academic year. The main goal of the courses is to consolidate and improve your English knowledge within the CEFR level in a dynamic environment with a specific focus on practical language use. These courses do not have a formal assessment and therefore there are no homework or examinations. Once you have completed the course you will be awarded an attendance certificate. If after this training a participant wants to certify his level, there is a possibility of taking a PCCL (the UPF certifiyng test) in any of the dates scheduled throughout the year. The fee for the PCCL is €75, but students taking undergraduate degrees can ask for a PARLA3 grant. Further details can be found in the corresponding webpage.
