This website is intended to give a comprehensive introduction to ALTE, its member organisations, their joint aims and the projects they are involved in together. The site is organised as follows. The Introduction to ALTE describes the rationale behind the founding of ALTE, lists its current membership and states its aims and objectives. The ALTE Framework gives details of the framework of levels for the comparison of tests in European languages, which has been ALTEs first major project, together with working definitions of the levels. The section on Recognition and Use details the way in which various tests are used to set standards for educational or workplace purposes. The ALTE Code of Practice is a statement of the standards which members of ALTE work to in providing and administering their tests. Other projects which members of ALTE are engaged in are then described, followed by the section on Examinations and Examination Systems, in which there is a brief introduction to each member organisation, together with details of their tests and the systems by which these are produced and administered. The glossary items from the site are gathered together in the Glossary section.
