The Centre operates under the auspices of the [[Department of Slovenian Studies, University of Ljubljana]]. Its activities are arranged in five specific programmes: courses of Slovene as a second/foreign language, seminars on Slovene language, literature and culture, an Examination Centre, and the annual symposium Obdobja ('Periods').
