This preparation course is conducted on the basis of state Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague on the faculty of Economics and Management. The program is designed to meet the requirements of entrance examinations at public universities of the Czech Republic. After a successful completion of the preparatory courses students receive a certificate of Czech language level.
