Digital language assessment for public organisations

Clearer language assessment. Safer decisions.

Lingmetra gives municipalities, regions and government agencies a structured basis for assessing language proficiency in recruitment, skills mapping and follow-up.

Operationally relevant assessment CEFR Unified language profile

When language proficiency is critical, you need a clear basis

General certificates and self-assessments do not always provide sufficient information about how a person uses the language in practice. Lingmetra helps organisations assess relevant skills in a more consistent, transparent and comparable way.

Better decision basis

Results are reported per skill area — reading, writing and speaking — giving organisations a clearer basis to act on.

More consistent assessment

A clear and repeatable process makes it easier to compare candidates and apply the same assessment model over time.

Right action from the start

Highlights both strengths and areas for development, so that support can be directed where it is actually needed.

Designed for the real needs of your organisation

Recruitment

Supplement other selection criteria with a structured language profile that supports your assessment of the role's language requirements.

Skills Mapping

Identify current proficiency levels and relevant development areas within the organisation or in a specific group.

Onboarding & Development

Create a basis for targeted language support in onboarding, mentoring or professional development.

Follow-up

Track development over time with a consistent assessment model and comparable results.

Language assessment is a decision support tool and should not be the sole factor in employment decisions.

Designed for requirements on transparency, integrity and follow-up

Lingmetra is designed for public organisations that need to be able to monitor, review and stand behind their assessment decisions — without overstating what can be guaranteed in each individual case.

  • Clear roles and permissions — access is controlled per organisation and role.
  • Traceable documentation — key steps in the process can be followed up.
  • Secure handling of personal data — with data separation per organisation.
  • Quality-assured assessment process — according to defined model and routines.
  • Accessible candidate experience — clear instructions and test environment.
  • Defined retention and storage — according to the organisation's settings and agreement.
  • Implementation and follow-up support — onboarding adapted to the organisation's needs.

Start limited — scale when the model is verified

Lingmetra can be introduced through a limited pilot where the target group, assessment areas, workflow and follow-up are defined together with the organisation. This provides an opportunity to evaluate the solution in the right context before a broader rollout is considered.

What clients typically ask

1

What does Lingmetra measure?

Lingmetra measures Swedish language proficiency in relevant skill areas — primarily reading comprehension, written ability and oral ability. The result is intended as a decision support tool, not as the sole selection criterion.

2

How do results relate to CEFR?

The assessment is based on CEFR and results are reported per skill area with a level indication within the A1–B2 scale, where applicable.

3

Can the assessment be adapted to our organisation?

Yes. The assessment profile, scope and delivery can be adapted to the organisation's roles, language requirements and processes — within the framework of the defined assessment model.

How is the assessment quality-assured?

The assessment follows a defined model with clear routines. Human review and quality assurance are applied where included in the current arrangement.

How is personal data handled?

Personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection regulations and the organisation's agreement. Data is separated per organisation and can be deleted according to defined routines.

What support does the organisation receive during implementation?

Lingmetra offers support in defining the assessment profile, roles, delivery and follow-up — adapted to the organisation's scope and needs.

Can Lingmetra deliver at larger volumes?

The delivery model is designed to scale through coordinated specialist expertise and operational capacity, adapted to the organisation's volume and requirements.

What documentation can be provided before purchase or procurement?

Lingmetra can provide relevant product, process and security documentation to support the client's own assessment before purchase — without taking a position on which procurement form is appropriate.

How are specialist partners used in delivery?

When needed, delivery is reinforced through carefully selected specialist partners in areas such as language, testing, technology and assessment. Lingmetra is responsible for coordination, client dialogue and the overall delivery.

Can we start with a limited pilot?

Yes. A limited pilot can be used to define the target group, assessment areas and follow-up before a broader rollout is considered.
