Global Seal of Biliteracy
What is it?
The Global Seal of Biliteracy is a credential issued in collaboration with an institution and which can be awarded to anyone—student or adult—from any state or country, that has met the criteria for one of its two award levels on one of its qualifying tests. Those criteria include demonstrating proficiency in English and one or more other language.
Why get it?
The Global Seal of Biliteracy is serial-numbered and can be listed as a credential, not just an award, on a CV or LinkedIn digital profile.
How to get it...
Access the testing portal and select either online proctoring (provided by Avant Assessment, at a cost of $39.90), or in-person proctoring in the CLCL (at a cost of $24.90).
Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to attend all University of Iowa–sponsored events. If you are a person with a disability who requires a reasonable accommodation in order to participate in this program, please contact in advance at
