Design notes
The tall page opens like a passport held upright. The top half is the cover, with the logo, the organisation, the title and a large guilloché rosette that holds the level; a pale hinge strip marks the fold. Below it, the data page gives the holder, the programme and a statement, then the language, level, standard and date of issue beside a block of four violet-red skill stamps. The signature, the document number and the QR code sit above a machine-readable zone. It fits portrait frames and application files.
About
Proficiency Certificate Template, Passport Page Portrait
Learners often need proof of their level in a language for a university place, a transfer abroad or a job that asks for B2 or C1. Exam boards, university language centres, corporate training teams and private schools answer that need with a proficiency certificate: the level reached on a named framework, a short descriptor of what that level means, and the result in each of the four skills, signed by the person responsible for the assessment.
Wording on the template“The holder has demonstrated independent command of English in a standardised assessment of listening, reading, speaking and writing, and can communicate with confidence in work, study and everyday situations.”More wording ideas for language proficiency certificates

Post for the recipient to share
I have just received my language proficiency certificate: B2 in listening, reading, speaking and writing. It took two years of evening study, a lot of podcasts and a few awkward phone calls, and it feels good to have the level confirmed by a proper assessment. Next goal: C1. #LanguageLearning #Proficiency

Printing
Printing it well
Print at actual size
Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.
Use card, not paper
A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.
Frame it
A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it upright, as designed.
Mind the edges
Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
