|
Claimants studying
language courses (except written Chinese courses) are additionally required
to pass a specified benchmark test at the specified (or higher) level after the course has commenced and before the expiry of the 4-year validity period.
|
|
|
Benchmark
test(s) should be taken after
the course has commenced and before the expiry of
the four year validity period stated in the letter
of approval-in-principle for CEF. Claimants should check on
the examination dates of relevant benchmark tests / examinations
and plan their study schedule.
|
|
|
In support of successful completion of the language course
and / or to claim reimbursement of the fees for benchmark
tests / examinations, a claimant should complete the “Continuing
Education Fund – Reimbursement Claim Form for Benchmark Test
/ Examination Fees” [SFAA 205] and submit a copy of
the receipt of the benchmark test / examination fees and a
copy of documentary proof of passing the specified benchmark test at the specified (or higher) level. These
documents must be submitted with the RCF for the relevant
lanuage course. A claim for reimbursement of
the fees for benchmark tests / examinations will only be entertained
if it is accompanied with a claim for the relevant language course.
|
|
|
For avoidance of doubt, claimants for the reimbursement
of the tuition fees for language courses may
not make use of the same benchmark test / examination
to support their claim for more than one such course.
|
|
|
Applicants
should check with the institutions / course providers
the required language benchmarks tests / examinations
pegged to the language course that they would take. |
