Did you know the NLSC offers #languagetesting through the Defense Language Proficiency Test (#DLPT) and Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI)? The program supports and encourages members to pursue a score of 3, considered general professional proficiency, or higher. Currently, over 52% of NLSC members in the Federalized Component have a DLPT or OPI score of 3 or above, which enables the program to support more challenging mission requests by demonstrating to #Government partners that NLSC members are experts in their target #languages. Take a look at the differences between the DLPT and OPI in our infographic below: #LanguageProficiency #Linguist #NationalSecurity #NationalDefense
