What is the TFI Test?

The Test de francais international (TFI) is a French language proficiency test for people whose native language is not French. It measures the everyday French skills of people working in an international environment. A standardized test that measures French proficiency on a single, continuous scale, the TFI test is for language learners of all levels, regardless of their occupation or background. Test scores indicated how well people can communicate in French with others in daily life and workplace settings. The test does not require specialized knowledge beyond that of a person who uses French in everyday work activities.

When and Where Can I Take the TFI Test?

The TFI test is available throughout the world. Testing can be arranged through schools, corporations, or other organizations that ask students or employees to take the TFI test. If testing has not been arranged through your organization, you can contact your AMIDEAST to find out when and where you can take the test.

What Score Do I Need To "Pass" the TFI Test?

The TFI test is not the kind of test that one "passes" or "fails." Not every job or task requires the same level of French proficiency. The TFI test measures different levels of French ability or proficiency. It helps learners set goals and measure their progress as their French improves; it enables people to demonstrate what they currently can accomplish in French. The single, continuous scale also makes it possible for learners to set attainable goals and to measure their progress as their French improves. Some companies use the TFI test to set their own score standards, based on the levels of French necessary to carry out particular responsibilities. Other companies offer French  training to help their employees reach target TFI test scores.
