SIELE is the Servicio Internacional de Evaluación de la Lengua Española, a system that assesses and certifies Spanish language skills among students and professionals, on all five continents, using electronic means. It is promoted by the Instituto Cervantes, the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, the Universidad de Salamanca and the Universidad de Buenos Aires, which guarantee the quality of the tests and take into account all linguistic variations from a panhispanic point of view.

The SIELE Certificate is valid for 5 years.
