YKI test
YKI (Finnish: Yleinen Kielitutkinto Swedish: Allmän språkexamen English: National Certificate of Language Proficiency) is a certification in the Finnish language, Swedish language and Northern Sámi language issued by the University of Jyväskylä and sanctioned by the Finnish Ministry of Education, following a standardized exam comprising oral and written parts that match the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) requirements and proficiency levels.[1] The YKI certification divides linguistic proficiency into three broad levels: upper, middle, and lower. These can be further divided into six levels that match the CEFR classification system.
Foreigners must pass the middle level certification in Finnish or Swedish (levels 3 or 4) to qualify for Finnish citizenship. References
