Since 2007 the Goethe-Institut Ljubljana has run exams and issues internationally accepted certificates.
In the field of education the Goethe-Institut Ljubljana cooperates with Slovene ministries and schools, organising advanced training for teachers of German language and many further programmes.
The promotion of German language also includes the excellence initiative PASCH (Schulen: Partner der Zukunft) of the Federal Republic of Germany. The elementary school in Beltinci has become the Slovenian PASCH-SchoolIn 2010 the theatre-project kulturabend.de was carried out, in cooperation with five Slovene Schools and one Hungarian School, giving young people the opportunity to present their German language skills in Beltinci. In another project, the Goethe-Bus “German on Tour” visited teachers and pupils at their schools in the Primorska region of Slovenia and provided them with information about Germany and the German language. Participants were invited to join talks and games and explore a multimedia-based bus.

The German Reading Room and Library
The Goethe-Institut Ljubljana was established in 2004, expanding the programme activities of the former "German Reading Room", opened in 1995 with an aim of offering a rich variety of contemporary German-language literature for free. The Reading room was later renamed into the German Library (Nemška knjižnica) that was founded under the auspices of the Goethe-Institut and co-funded by the Ministry of Culture of Slovenia. Up to 2015 the German Library was an independent unit of the Central Technological Library, University of Ljubljana, where related small-scale cultural and informative events took place. Today the collection of the former German Library that consists of over 5,000 books including titles dedicated to German architecture, design, literary theory, humanities and social sciences plus some German magazines to which the library subscribes, makes a part of the CTK collection.
