You could either call the years by their number: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. Or say Basic Level (1st year?), Elementary Certificate (3rd year), Higher Certificate (5th year). I don't know what you could call the 2nd and 4th years.

I did the exams in 1996! And I also prepare students for the exams. I never say "cycle" when referring to the certificates. But that's a matter of opinion.

For your information: the European Framework classifies the levels of foreign-language studies as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. "A1" is the lowest and "C2" is the highest. Each examining body then calls its exams by whatever names it wishes. For example, the First Certificate of English is equivalent to B2. 5th year in the EOI is equivalent to C1 (or it was in Catalonia a couple of years ago).
