Recognition of additional language with Languages@BU.
When you study with Languages@BU there are no tests or exams, so you won't receive a formal certificate. But for those who can demonstrate they have taken their language learning forward, we can provide you with a Record of Achievement.
This is in addition to your degree and it is not accredited. BUT, it does enhance your employability and looks good to prospective employers – who value language ability - on your CV! Plus, you have the self-satisfaction of having gained a valuable skill.
