French proficiency. It is based on the
Common European Framework of
Reference (CEFR), which defines
language proficiency along six global
levels: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2. At
each level, proficiency is measured
across four competencies: listening,
speaking, reading, and writing. The
French Ministry of National
Education awards successful
candidates a diploma that is valid for
life.
Who Can Take the DELF?
