HSK/HSKK Test

HSK, also known as the Chinese Proficiency Test, is an internationally standardized assessment of Chinese language proficiency. The test consists of six levels: HSK Level 1, HSK Level 2, HSK Level 3, HSK Level 4, HSK Level 5, and HSK Level 6.
In addition, HSKK (Hanyu Shuiping Kouyu Kaoshi) evaluates test-takers oral Chinese abilities and has three levels: HSKK Primary, HSKK Intermediate, and HSKK Advanced.

If you have any questions about the HSK or HSKK tests, please don't hesitate to email us at hsktest@confuciusgroningen.nl.
