What are the DELF and DALF diplomas?

The DELF (Diplôme d’Études en Langue Française) and the DALF (Diplôme Approfondi de Langue Française) are official diplomas awarded by the French Ministry of Education to certify the competency of candidates from outside France in the French language.

DELF and DALF are composed of 6 diplomas that have been harmonized with the European standards corresponding to the 6 levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages since Sept. 1st, 2005.

At each level, 4 skills are evaluated: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

A junior version of the DELF also exists for junior and high school students.

The Alliance Française des Bahamas proposes this exam as well.

Persons studying French in The Bahamas are encouraged to sit these exams in order to validate the level of their knowledge on an international level.

Exams are scheduled again this May (DELF Tout Public (General) and DELF Pro (Professional) and in June (DELF Junior and Primaire (8-12 yrs).

Registration is open to anyone wishing to sit these exams. Special discounts are available for Alliance Francaise students.
