DELF / DALF FRENCH LANGUAGE EXAMINATIONS: PREPARATION AND REGISTRATION

The DELF and DALF are official diplomas issued by the French Ministry of Education to certify the French language skills of foreign candidates and French nationals from non-French-speaking countries who do not hold a French public secondary or higher education diploma. The offer is adapted to all ages and all audiences. It is harmonised on the 6-level scale of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The DELF and DALF exams are valid for life.

To enter a French university or college, the DELF level B2 or C1 is often required. In a French-speaking professional career, the DELF may also be required to check your precise level of French.

How does the DELF exam work?

The DELF (A1, A2, B1, B2) assesses four areas of competence: - written comprehension, written expression, oral comprehension, oral expression. For each of these four tests, the exercises and the length of the test vary according to the DELF or DALF chosen.

To obtain the DELF - DALF diploma, a minimum score of 50 out of 100 points is required. A total score of 49/100 is not sufficient to obtain the diploma. For each exercise, a score below 5/25 points is eliminatory.

Exemple de sujets : 
- exam subject DELF A2
- exam subject DELF B1 
- exam subject DELF B2
- exam subject DALF C1
- exam subject DALF C2
