The Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (漢語水平考試, Chinese Level Test), commonly known as HSK, is the world's most well-known test of Chinese language proficiency for non-native speakers.The HSK was developed by Beijing Language and Culture University under the supervision of the Chinese Ministry of Education. Its purpose is to evaluate the Chinese proficiency of non-native Chinese speakers. These may be foreigners as well as people with Chinese backgrounds living in other countries, or members of a Chinese national minority living in mainland China itself.
There are three levels: beginning level (HSK Basic), elementary to intermediate level (HSK Elementary-Intermediate), and advanced level (HSK Advanced). HSK is held regularly in China and in other countries each year and HSK certificates are issued to those who meet required scores.
