 Why the TFI test?

Spoken by over 170 million people daily, French is widely used in international business and communication. A student wanting to study in a Francophone nation, or a professional looking to work in an international environment with multiple languages, can use TFI scores to prove their competence in the language, since the TFI test is recognized as reliable and valid worldwide.

Who uses the TFI test?

The Test de français international (TFI™), also known as the "French TOEIC," assesses skills in French as the language is used in international business and workplace settings.

Developed by ETS, the TFI is reliable, easy to administer and affordable. It provides an objective, reliable measure of proficiency and is the international standard for French language assessment.
