The Credentialed Community Language Test (CCL) is an assessment of your language abilities at a community level. The CCL Test is generally taken by the applicants who are looking to lodge a point-based visa application. On successfully passing the test, applicants are awarded five bonus points. These bonus points are also referred to as Credentialed Community Language Points. This test is not a professional certification. If you pass the CCL test, you are not certified to work as an interpreter or a translator.

A minimum of two examiners will assess a candidate’s ability to communicate effectively in English and a LOTE.

Two significant factors that contribute to assessment are:

• Language Quality – competency in both English and LOTE.
• Language Register – the level of formality with which a candidate transfers the meaning.

Marks are deducted for errors. Examiners consider the types of errors in your performance and how these impact on your overall communication.

Errors for which the examiners deduct a candidate’s score are:

• Accuracy (correctness of information)
• Distortions (misrepresentation of information)
• Omissions (removal of information)
• Insertions (addition of information)

Each examiner awards your results individually. In situations where the examiners disagree about the performance of a candidate, additional examiners will assess your test to help determine your result.

The Test comprises of two dialogues: each worth 45 marks. In order to pass the test, a candidate requires at least 29 marks in each dialogue and an overall score of 63 out of 90.

The result for the CCL Test will be given as:

• Pass: 63 or higher (marks out of 90)
• Marginal Fail: between 58 and 62.5 (marks out of 90)
• Clear Fail: less than 58 (marks out of 90)

In situations where a candidate achieves 23 out of 45 in Dialogue 1, 41 out of 45 in Dialogue 2 and an Overall Score of 64 out of 90, the result given will be CLEAR FAIL as the candidate hasn’t achieved required score in Dialogue 1 (i.e. 29).

Results are sent via email within 4-6 weeks of the test date and are valid for three years from the date of issue.

Clear Fail results are unable to apply for a review of their test due to the statistical improbability of the result being overturned.
