Notice on increasing the Online Chinese Test (Home Edition) in countries outside of China
The series of Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK), or Chinese Proficiency Test, is a test program organized and conducted worldwide by the Center for Language Education and Cooperation. It is a standardized Chinese proficiency test designed for non-native speakers, providing certification of various levels of proficiency to Chinese learners. Due to the pandemic, in April 2020 the Online Chinese Test (Home Edition) was made available to take online, allowing students to participate in the test according to their demands on time, facilitating their preparedness for study abroad, graduation and application for job, accommodating other demands on their time. More than 100,000 people have so far taken the online test, which have won the consistent high praise from all walks of life. To further meet the needs of Chinese learners to take HSK (paper and oral examination), YCT, BCT and other Chinese tests during the epidemic, it has been decided to increase four testing dates of Online Chinese Tests (Home Edition) for foreign countries on the first half of the 2022: February 27, March 12, April 23 and June 25.
