Rosetta Stone doesn\u2019t issue official language certificates, but its learning content is organised according to CEFR levels. As you use the program, you will be monitored in order to get to know your progress with the languages you are learning.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_hoverbox][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1538997768133{background-color: #f5f5f5 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text] Online self-study language\u00a0learning software Beginner to advanced learners Auto-corrective exercises with\u00a0immediate feedback Improve\u00a0the 4 basic language skills: speaking, reading, writing and listening, with an emphasis on language production [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BWcfMQv7Wac&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1538996173231{background-color: #e9e9e9 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image source=&#8221;external_link&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;appear&#8221; custom_src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Avantatges-Ub-1.png&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] UB Advantages Special [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2511","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2511","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2511"}],"version-history":[{"count":37,"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2511\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4026,"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2511\/revisions\/4026"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/multilingua\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2511"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
