Modern Language Association Proficiency Exam

As of July 2008, the Virginia Department of Education no longer accepts the MLA Exam as proof of language proficiency.

For questions regarding the teacher licensure process in Virginia, you may contact the Department of Education in Richmond, (800) 292 - 3820, or the school district(s) with which you are seeking employment.

The Modern Languages Association's Proficiency Exam used to be offered to individuals seeking certified endorsement from the Virginia Department of Education for teaching a foreign language in Virginia's public schools.
