The Accreditation Centre for Foreign Language Examinations (OH-NYAK)
The Accreditation Centre for Foreign Language Examinations (OH-NYAK) is as old as the Board. It is an office working with only a few public servants, where both people without language exams, asking for information about where and how they can get one, and holders of older or foreign certificates can turn for information about how much their certificate is worth in Hungary and if they are entitled to all the allowances granted to other certified language certificates.We also have customers who have passed the oral and the written exams separately and would like to know if the two parts make up a complex (type C) language exam.
To clear up a common misunderstanding: No language exams can be conducted at the Accreditation Centre (OH-NYAK). It's colleagues can only give informatiom about the possible languages and the choice of language centres where exams can be taken.
The Accreditation Board for Foreign Langugage Examinations (NYAT)
The Accreditation Board for Foreign Langugage Examinations, which consists of nine members, was created by the government in 1998. It's task declared by the law is to investigate the new langugage centres set up after the 1st January 2000 in the place of the single state language exam existing before the 31st December 1999, and their language exam systems serving to measure language competence, before issuing their licence. (accreditation resolutions). Until the end of October 2003, the Board investigated nearly two dozens of certified language centres and their exam systems used for testing language competence, as well as hundreds of exam locations connected to them, befure issuing their accreditation resolutions (licence).
