I am trying to find a list of schools that offer the DELTA Module 1 with the sincerest prayers and hopes that I can take it in person in the summer. Each time I click on a link, however, I am taken to places that offer the test, not the course that prepares you for the test.

Does anyone know of any centers that offer this course in the summer? or search terms should I be using to get an answer to my question?

Thanks.

As confusing as it seems, the exams are the courses because they're considered qualifications.

From cambridgeenglish.org:
"Not sure where you can take Delta? More than 160 exam centres around the world offer Delta modules."

Yes, I am a little familiar with the terminology, though probably not familiar enough. I looked on their website for Thailand - I know the school in Thailand that offers the DELTA - but the website just lead me to the British Council's website. I scrutinized the site for many minutes - maybe 20 - but it always lead me to the generic page that described in detail the 3 modules that make up the DELTA exam Sad

Why are you only looking to only do Module 1?

Anyway, this is what you need to be looking at: http://thedistancedelta.com/howitworks/

I did the integrated module over the best part of a year; however, you can choose when to do each part, so it would be possible to focus on 1 now and the others later.

If you click on the Cambridge Centre Search page, you then need to select the exam (Delta Module 1) and, if you want, the country too. It gives you an email and phone contact for each centre, which is probably the best way of finding out if / when a course is running.

The search also gives the website for each centre and you'll generally get some more specific information about the courses on offer there.

Some centres (such as Languages International in Auckland) run the courses part time and only when they have enough teachers, so there are no fixed dates on the site - you have to ask when one is coming up.

Others do have their dates up there - an example is ATTC in Sydney, which has an integrated full-time course starting in August.

So, it's a case of searching and asking!

Good luck.
