Language Requirements for Medical Licensing
To obtain a Swedish medical license, the National Board of Health and Welfare (Socialstyrelsen) requires proof of C1-level Swedish.
At Learn Swedish Lab, we prepare medical professionals to reach Swedish C1 level within one year or less in case of urgency. You can choose to take the Swedex B2–C1 exam, which is the exam recognized by Socialstyrelsen as evidence of advanced language skills.
