fide-language passport

Assess your level in oral and written French

The fide test certifies oral and written language skills in German, French and Italian. It was specially designed for daily life in Switzerland, on behalf of the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM). Oral and written skills are assessed separately and the language passport can attest to the levels achieved (A1, A2 or B1) for a job search, naturalization or a residence or establishment permit.
 
The fide test is divided into two parts: "Speaking and Understanding" and "Reading and Writing".
Oral and written skills are assessed separately and can take place on two different days during the same week.
 
In order to prepare you as well as possible, VOXEA offers you an individual preparation course.
 
Approximately 4 weeks after the test, the fide Secretariat will send you, directly by post, your language passport indicating your results (A1, A2 or B1).

Written in Lausanne

The fide WRITTEN test is divided into two parts: "Reading" and "Writing".

Each participant performs the tasks that cover two levels, either A1-A2 or A2-B1.

Unlike in placement tests, where all the tasks correspond to a target level, in the fide test the tasks are designed in a progressive manner, i.e. that for level A1-A2 for example, the first reading and writing tasks are in the lower half of level A1 and become progressively more difficult, until the last task, which is in the highest part of level A2.

Written assessment session: Saturday afternoon.
Price: CHF 120.- (Introduction approx. 15 minutes + 60 minutes)
Registration and information: 021 627 70 70 or info@voxea.com
