CLL becomes a DFP accredited center
You want to train your teams in French. But one question keeps coming up: how can you objectify the level achieved and make it officially recognized? That’s exactly what the DFP – Diplôme de Français Professionnel – issued by the Paris Île-de-France Chamber of Commerce and Industry does, and it’s valid for life.
CLL has just been accredited by the CCI Paris Île-de-France to organize these exams, giving you the opportunity to prepare your employees and have them take the DFP within your organization, in a dedicated formula.
Why is DFP of particular interest to companies?
The DFP is not a general test. It certifies the ability to work in French in a professional context, by assessing oral and written skills in job-related communication situations.
For a company, it’s a high value-added validation tool:
- A clear, official reference framework for measuring professional French skills
- Enhance the value of our employees through a recognized and lasting certification (valid for life)
- Securing certain jobs or assignments requiring a professional command of French (customers, patients, partners, public authorities)
- Objectivize progress as part of a training plan, internal mobility or induction program
Four specialties tailored to your business needs
The DFP is divided into four specialties, according to the sectors and contexts in which French is used: business, healthcare, international relations and tourism-hospitality-restauration.
This sector-based approach is a major advantage: it certifies a level of French that is truly operational in the candidate’s professional environment.
An “in-house” solution: preparation + exam, tailored to your needs
The main benefit for a company is to be able to organize a complete in-house session, with a coherent itinerary:
- Analysis of needs and context (functions, professions, communication situations)
- Targeted preparatory training (face-to-face, videoconference or hybrid format)
- Take the DFP exam in our examination room, according to the official diploma requirements.
This “in-house” format offers three very concrete advantages:
- simple logistics: sessions scheduled to suit your needs
- pedagogical consistency: preparation content is aligned with the exam and realities in the field
- HR impact: a motivating environment for employees, with a clear, rewarding objective
A recognized standard in a secure environment
The Diplômes de français professionnel were created at the request of companies and are based on an international network of accredited centers, with computer-based examinations and supervised procedures.
The result: a reliable, recognized certification that can be directly applied to your training and skills development policy.
