Canadian Language Benchmarks

The Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB), or Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadien (NCLC) in French, is a 12-point scale of task-based language proficiency descriptors used to guide the teaching and assessment of learners of English and French languages in Canada. Like the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines, the Canadian Language Benchmarks describe learners' successive levels of communicative achievement.
