We offer two versions of the TEF: TEF Canada and the general TEF. Most candidates will want to take the TEF Canada. You should only take the general TEF if it is specifically required, or if you need the Lexique & Structure section. If you are applying for Permanent residency or Canadian Citizenship, you MUST take the TEF Canada.
Directed at candidates whose native language is not French and wishing to assess their level of French. It can be used for a variety of purposes (academic studies, emigration, citizenship applications, professional, etc.).
