About this file

This document is a technical exhibit that outlines test specifications and distribution requirements for the Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT5) used to assess the foreign language proficiency of military and government linguists.

The key details are:

  • The DLPT5 has both reading and listening components, with test items ranging from 1-500 words for reading and 20-160 seconds for listening, across 11 Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) proficiency levels from 0 (no proficiency) to 5 (native proficiency).
  • The Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center (DLIFLC) anticipates an annual demand for 5,000 to 7,500 new DLPT5 test items covering approximately 350 languages and dialects.
  • The contract opportunity (Solicitation # W91QF24R0025) is for the creation of these DLPT5 test items in accordance with DLIFLC's specified development requirements. The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Eustis is the procuring agency.
