About this file
This document is a Technical Exhibit that outlines the test specifications for the Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT5), which assesses the foreign language proficiency of military and government linguists. The DLPT5 includes reading and listening test components across 11 Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) proficiency levels, ranging from 0 (no proficiency) to 5 (native proficiency). The document details the number of test items, passage lengths, and time limits required for each ILR level. It also specifies the content area distribution for each level, covering social/cultural, military/security, economic/political, science/technology, and geography topics. The related federal contract opportunity is for the creation of DLPT5 test items, with an anticipated annual demand of 5,000 to 7,500 items across approximately 350 foreign languages and dialects. The contracting agency is the Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Eustis.
