Spanish A2 Exam Kit

For Spanish nationality: DELE A2 vocabulary and phrases, with CCSE exam practice included

In preparation USD 19 when it opens, one payment, no subscription. Leave your e-mail and we write once, with the launch price.

Who needs this certificate

Spanish nationality by residence: the DELE A2 (or a higher DELE) and the CCSE test, both from the Instituto Cervantes (Real Decreto 1004/2015, article 6).
Exempt from the DELE, not from the CCSE: nationals of the twenty countries where Spanish is an official language, and anyone who already holds a DELE A2 or higher.
Under 18, or with judicially modified capacity: no exams; a certificate from the school, residence or care centre shows integration instead.

Two exams stand between your years in Spain and a Spanish passport: the DELE A2 and the CCSE. This kit is the words and phrases for the first and every fact for the second, on cards that come back just before you would forget them. Ten minutes a day, on your phone.

What the kit will include

The A2 words the exam uses, in 10 topics: personal details, family, home, shopping, food, health, work, transport, free time, offices and forms.
Ready phrases for the writing tasks (notes, short e-mails, forms) and for the speaking tasks.
Every CCSE block as question cards, in our own words: government, law and participation; rights and duties; territory and geography; culture and history; Spanish society.
Exam day and the nationality paperwork: what to bring, what the forms ask.
Explanations in English or French. Audio for every Spanish card.

What it is not: Not a full course and not mock papers. The CCSE preparation manual and the CCSE app are free from the Instituto Cervantes; use them alongside.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the official word list?

No. The kit is our own list, written for the level and checked against the published exam descriptions. The official lists are not reproduced, and no example sentence comes from exam material.

Does the kit replace a prep book or a course?

No, it is the vocabulary side of your preparation. Practice tests and a teacher train the exam tasks; the kit makes sure you have the words and phrases those tasks need.

I already study some of these words. Will I get duplicates?

No. When you add the kit, words you already study in another deck are skipped, and they still count towards your progress.

Do I need a subscription?

No. The kit is a one-time payment and works on the Free plan; its decks do not count towards the Free limits.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, once per kit and account: within 14 days of purchase if you have studied fewer than 100 of the kit’s cards. A refund removes the kit’s decks; your own words stay.
