<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You can always just take a DLPT at your Ed. Center. The DLI website does have training resources, of which I would suggest brushing up on your language with GLOSS.SGT(P) Private RallyPoint MemberMon, 17 Feb 2014 18:00:49 -05002014-02-17T18:00:49-05:00Response by SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 17 at 2014 7:44 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Are you looking to learn or test what you already know? Also, if you don't mind me asking, what language(s) are you searching for? As a lover of languages, I have tons of resources.SGT(P) Private RallyPoint MemberMon, 17 Feb 2014 19:44:21 -05002014-02-17T19:44:21-05:00Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 26 at 2014 11:04 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As noted by <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="7500" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/7500-88m-motor-transport-operator-203rd-bsb-3rd-bct">SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member</a>, all (most?) Army education centers administer DLPTs. Here's the website for the ed center at your location: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.lewis-mcchord.army.mil/dhr/eso/Testing%20Brochure.pdf">http://www.lewis-mcchord.army.mil/dhr/eso/Testing%20Brochure.pdf</a>.<br /><br />With fluent Danish and some apparent capacity for Norwegian and Swedish, you might be a candidate for VTIP into FA48 Foreign Area Officer in the future. Any desire to be a FAO? <br /><br /><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="86712" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/86712-11a-infantry-officer-b-co-2-23-in">1LT Private RallyPoint Member</a> provides some good advice about getting a DA 4187 in to take a DLPT; I'd just add though that you can take the upper level DLPTs for most languages at Army education centers, too; this allows you to score up to 5/5 for listening and reading. Note you have to have taken the lower level DLPT and gotten a 3/3 in a certain time period before taking the upper level; I think you need a 3/3 on the lower levels within 6 months of taking an upper level; this is because the minimum score on an upper level DLPT is 3/3, and if you could just jump straight to the upper level, everybody would, and everybody would get a 3/3. You can also remotely take an Oral Proficiency Interview; these are quite rare, as OPIs aren't routinely administered, and seem only to be administered as a DLI graduation requirement and for some certain jobs requiring a valid OPI score.MAJ Private RallyPoint MemberFri, 26 Dec 2014 11:04:12 -05002014-12-26T11:04:12-05:002014-02-17T17:55:59-05:00
