The „Deutschtest für Zuwanderer (DTZ)“ is the language exam at the end of the integration course. You can achieve level A2 or B1 (Common European framework of reference for languages).
B1 means you can talk about every day topics and read and write corresponding texts. B1 doesn’t mean you speak perfect German.
The test has a written and an oral exam, taking place on two consecutive days (Fri/Sat) every month. The written part consists of reading comprehension, listening comprehension and text production, the oral exam is about introducing yourself, talking about a picture, making plans together.
For more information and exercises please see the g.a.s.t. e.V. website.
Please note: Since 1 January 2023, the DTZ has been offered nationwide by the “Gesellschaft für akademische Studienvorbereitung und Testentwicklung e.V.” (g.a.s.t. e.V.). We only offer the exam on separate dates (approx. four times a year) for interested parties who do not attend or have not attended an integration course at pdL. The prerequisite for participation is that you have a PKZ (BAMF personal identification number). For all pdL students who regularly attend an integration course, the exam takes place after Module 6.
