2018 Test of Chinese as
a Foreign Language (TOCFL) is Now Accepting Applications!
The Education Division of the
Taipei Economic and Culture Office (TECO) in Boston will administer the 2018
Test of Chinese as a Foreign Language (TOCFL) and Children Chinese Competency
Certification (CCCC) on Sunday, October 28, 2018, 2:00-4:00 pm, at the Lexington

Boston (9 Mudge Way, Bedford,MA 01730).
The TOCFL is intended for those that wish to measure their Chinese
proficiency and is available in both traditional and simplified character
versions. Since 2014, the levels of the TOCFL have been reformed in order to
correspond to the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages:
Learning, Teaching, Assessment). The new version of the TOCFL has three
proficiency bands: Band A, Band B, and Band C. Each of the bands has two
levels.
According to the AP Course
Description, “Course work provides students with opportunities to perform
Intermediate to Advanced level tasks, and students are expected to achieve
proficiencies throughout, and sometimes beyond, the Intermediate range as
described in the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL)
Proficiency Guidelines.” Therefore, if students want to pass the AP test, they
have to reach the intermediate level of the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines, which
corresponds to level 3 of the TOCFL. The students could take the TOCFL as a
practice test for AP test preparation.TOCFL is designed for non-native speakers
of Chinese. Those who wish to know about their level of Chinese proficiency, or
those who want to study, work or do business in Chinese speaking countries are
welcome to take the test.
Examinees who pass the test will
receive a Chinese Proficiency Certificate as a credential for the following:
● Eligibility
for the “Taiwan Scholarship” and “Ministry of Education Huayu Enrichment
Scholarship” for government sponsored studying in Taiwan.
● Qualification
for admission to academic programs at colleges or universities in Taiwan.
● Proof of
Chinese language proficiency for individuals who wish to obtain
Chinese-inclusive, bilingual employment globally.
● Incentive
for those who are interested in learning Chinese.
