The system was set up in 1992 by the German Association Of Language Centres, Language Teaching Institutes And Institutes Of Foreign Languages (''Arbeitskreis der Sprachenzentren, Sprachlehrinstitute und Fremdspracheninstitute'', AKS). This association acts as a forum for the exchange of information, experience and ideas between institutes and people involved in language work at universities and training insitutes, and those taking part in research into language teaching and learning. More than 100 languages centres in Germany, Austria and Switzerland are members of the association. The AKS is also one of the founding members of CERCLES, the European Confederation Of Language Centres In Higher Education , "a confederation of independent associations from 21 countries of Europe" {Link without Title} . LEVELS The levels correspond to levels of the Common European Framework Of Reference For Languages
