DELF / DALF 2012
DELF and DALF exams are held in over 120 countries and each diploma is a useful qualification which is accepted around the world.
The DELF (Diplôme Elémentaire de Langue Française/Diploma in French language) and the DALF (Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française/Advanced Diploma in French language) are issued by the French Ministry of Education, who certifies the French language skills of non-French candidates.
The DELF and DALF are designed to assess the communicative skills of a candidate in a real situation, using authentic documents, and to evaluate know-how (writing a letter, asking for information, exchanging opinions) rather than the linguistic and formal grammatical knowledge.
They are divided into six diplomas corresponding to the six-level scale of the Common European Reference Framework for Languages. The six diplomas (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2) that make up DELF and DALF are completely independent. This means that candidates can register for the examination of their choice, according to their level. At each level, 4 skills are evaluated: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Each diploma is internationally recognised and valid for life. Note that the DELF B2 and DALF C1 allow foreign students to validate admission into a French university.
