Following the recent scandal over [forged language certificates in South Tyrol](https://www.eurac.edu/en/blogs/midas/buying-bilingualism-fake-language-certificates), this is the second entry in a MIDAS blog series exploring how language skills of public employees are assessed in multilingual territories.
