DELF-DALF Diplomas
Do you travel a lot? Do you want an international diploma? Do you want your level of French to be recognized worldwide? Consider taking the DELF.
The DELF (Diplôme d’Etudes en Langue Française) and DALF (Diplôme Approfondi en Langue Française) are official qualifications awarded by the French Ministry of Education, to certify the competencies of a candidate (from outside France) in the French language.
DELF and DALF are composed of 6 independent diplomas that correspond to the levels stated by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, in use at the AF in Atlanta and at many Alliance Française locations around the world.
This exam is required of foreign nationals enrolling in French Universities. Candidates can register for the examination of their choice, according to their level. Please visit the CIEP website to find information about each test.
DELF Junior & Prim
The junior version of DELF has the same basic structure as the standard DELF. However, the topics are different because the material incorporates the interests of young people. It can only be taken by children between the ages of 12 and 18. The diploma awarded is identical to the standard DELF diploma. The examinations are independent, and candidates can register for the examination of their choice. Each examination evaluates the four communication competencies : reading, listening, writing and speaking.
There are four diplomas for adolescents : A1, A2, B1, B2
DELF Prim is intended for children, ages 2-12, who are beginners in French as a Foreign Language and who are undertaking studies corresponding to the French elementary level. Successful candidates receive a certificate identical to the general public version. There are three diplomas for elementary students: A1.1, A1, A2.
