Welcome to the Internet Registration for Candidates System (IRK)

The University System of Language Provision (USLP) coordinates the organisation of the language teaching at the University of Warsaw, ensuring that students acquire  language and intercultural skills that are consistent with the standards  defined in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), which constitute the basis of the language proficiency certification process.

Persons interested in developing their language competences can choose from among almost 40 languages, taught by several University units: Faculty of Modern Languages, Faculty of Oriental Studies, Faculty of Polish Studies, Centre for Foreign Language Teaching, and Centre for Foreign Language Teacher Training and European  Education.

In order to register for a language course or a certification exam, candidates who are not UW students should sign up for an account on the website of Internet Registration for Candidates System (IRK): https://irk.uw.edu.pl/en-gb/home/  by choosing the tab “Create an account” and filling out all required fields listed below:
