LEARN FRENCH
Open the Door to New Opportunities
French is one of the world’s major international languages and an important language for education, diplomacy, business, tourism, international cooperation, and cultural exchange.
Our French Language Programme is designed to help learners develop practical French communication skills for academic, professional, social, and personal purposes. Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some knowledge of French, our programme provides a structured pathway to help you communicate with greater confidence.
Learning French can help you to:
Communicate wth French-speaking people around the world.
Prepare for further studies in French-speaking institutions
Improve your employability and professional opportunities
Work effectively in international and multicultural environments
Participate in international organisations and development programmes
Travel and interact confidently in French-speaking countries
Develop intercultural understanding and global communication skills
There are several French tests and certificates to prove your level of French.
They may sometimes be required when you enrol in an institute of higher education.
The TCF (Test de Connaissance du Français Test of Knowledge of French) is the official test of the Ministry of National Education. Designed by France Education International (FEI), some tests may be taken online and by correspondence in certain countries. The TCF scores are valid for two years.
The TEF (Test d'Evaluation du français French Assessment) is an international reference created and distributed by the CCI of Paris Ile-de-France. It assesses the level of knowledge and skill in French on a scale of 0 to 7. It is available in an electronic version, and the result is immediate. You can sit the TEF as many times as you like.
The DELF and the DALF (Diplôme d’Etudes en Langue Française (French Language Study Diploma) and the Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française (Further French Language Diploma)) are official diplomas awarded by the Ministry of National Education. They incorporate six independent diplomas that certify to the holder's ability in the four areas of language competence. They are valid indefinitely. Unlike the tests, the DELF and DALF are acquired for life.
The DUEF (Diplôme Universitaire d’Etudes françaises), developed and harmonised by ADCUEFE’s Campus FLE network of university centers for French as a foreign language, specify the level reached by the end of the program. They include instruction explicitly designed for students intending to begin a program of academic study in France.
