Diplome d'etudes en Langue Francaise (DELF)

The DELF is an official, quality diploma, harmonized with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. This diploma is recognized around the world and is valid for life. Depending on the level passed, the DELF can enhance a curriculum vitae (CV), and make it easier to get a job in a company where the spoken language is French. The DELF B1 allows you to obtain French nationality. The DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow entry to French, European or French-speaking universities, and to certain grandes écoles.
