What is TEF/TEFAQ?

TEF (Test d’évaluation du Français)

TEF is the évaluation of French proficiency level of an individual looking to immigrate to Canada/Quebec or France for work and study. The test was curated by the French Language Centre of the CCI Paris Ile-de-France in 1998.

Hence, for any individual aiming to land in Canada or Quebec, taking the TEF or TEFAQ test can add many benefits by adding additional points in your CSR scores as well as the career prospects too.
