The Common European Framework Reference (CEFR) is an internationally accepted language scale that breaks down skills in the same categories OET does – Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking. It describes exactly what each level (A1 – C2) says about how well you can communicate and is linked to research on how many hours you need on average to move from one level up to the next.
