Language Proficiency Exam Prep

 DELF/DALF

DELF (Diplôme d'études en langue française) is the official diploma of French language awarded by the French Ministry of National Education. It is conducted to test the French Language proficiency of non-native speakers. This exam is administered by the International Centre for French Studies on behalf of France's Ministry of Education.

DELF Diploma is widely recognized in about 165 countries and valid for a lifetime. The independent certificates for each level correspond to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). CEFR is a guideline produced by the Council of Europe after 12 years of research. Four language skills are assessed at each level: Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.

TEF

TEF (Test d'évaluation du français) is a test of fluency in French for non-native speakers. It is awarded by the CCIP. It is often required to be admitted into universities and is recognized by the Federal government of Canada as a proof of fluency in immigration procedures.

The test is made up of three mandatory and two optional sections. The reading, listening, grammar and vocabulary sections are mandatory and must be taken together, while the writing and speaking sections are optional and can be taken separately.

At IAOL, the course modules and pedagogy align with DELF & TEF for candidates to get certified and empower their lives through career guidance and job consultation. Here is a table to have a basic understanding of both exams
