DALF

DALF (Diploma in Advanced French Language) is a certification of French-language abilities for non-native speakers administered by France's Centre international d'études pédagogiques, or CIEP, (International Centre of Pedagogical Studies) for the country's Ministry of Education.

 

It is composed of two independent diplomas corresponding to the top two levels, C1 & C2, of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

 

Level C2 is the highest level attainable according to this framework, denoting mastery and proficiency in the French language.

 

The "basic" and "independent" divisions of language proficiency are certified by the DELF levels A1 to B2.
