DIGItelc Licences – Quality and Security for Digital Exams
In order to administer digital exams in the new system, examiners and examination centre coordinators will need a DIGItelc licence starting April 1, 2026 (or March 18, 2026, for (examination) registrations). This ensures that digital telc exams are administered in a consistent, compliant, and quality-assured manner.
Overview:
- Examination centre coordinators need the DIGItelc Exam Administrator licence to manage digital telc exams.
- In addition to their valid examiner licence, examiners need the DIGItelc Additional Licence for Examiners to conduct oral exams in the DIGItelc 2.0 exam software.
DIGItelc licences are valid for three years.
Important:
A licence from the previous DIGItelc system does not authorize the use of DIGItelc 2.0.

Licences are personal and not tied to the examination centre or your employer. To view your licence overview, you therefore need a personal account with your own email address. If you have only been using an account through your examination centre, please follow these steps:
- Create an additional personal account using a private email address. Then send a brief message to training@telc.net.
- We will verify your information and make the necessary adjustments in the system for you.
Consultations are held via the MeetYou software. If you open the same access link again, you can:
- watch a recording of the consultation,
- use an AI chat that answers many common questions.
