Show answer and explanation
✓ El Instituto Cervantes
The Instituto Cervantes works to promote the teaching of Spanish and to spread culture in Spanish. It has centres in many countries and organises the official DELE exams and the CCSE test, which is the one you are preparing for. Do not confuse its mission with that of the Real Academia Española, which looks after the standard of the language. Remember: Cervantes teaches and spreads, the RAE regulates.
