The DELF (Diplôme d’Études en Langue Française) and DALF (Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française) are official French language diplomas issued by the French Ministry of Education. They are recognized worldwide and are available for all levels of proficiency, from beginners to advanced learners.

The DELF and DALF exams are designed to assess your ability to communicate in French in real-life situations. They consist of six levels, corresponding to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR):

• DELF: A1, A2, B1, B2

• DALF: C1, C2

Whether you’re learning French for personal, academic, or professional reasons, these certifications provide a solid and globally recognized proof of your language skills.
