This paper deals with the procedures to collect information about the learners´ needs, which are mandatory to plan, carry out, and evaluate educational programs for either public or private institutions as a response to their real needs (Pratt 1980) to reinforce not only the contents but also the students’ background which includes their behavior as well. In this context, the University of the Armed Forces ESPE in coordination with the Department of Languages and its Career of Applied Linguistics in English let me find out if the students who already finished their curriculum have reached their competences in the language and the teacher formation to face their profession. Nowadays, The Common European Framework CEFR of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment, is a guideline used to describe the achievements of learners of foreign languages in many countries including Ecuador. The last year's cohort was considered to take the sample FCE exam and analyze if the results are the ones that the government is looking for. They were classified into the six reference levels that are becoming widely accepted as the European standard for grading an individual's language proficiency.
