FIDE Webinar

Since January 2019, foreign nationals (i.e. residents of Switzerland who are not Swiss citizens) whose mother tongue isn’t French must provide a proof of the required French level proficiency in order to obtain their Permis C or Swiss Naturalisation.

Learning French isn’t a “luxury” anymore and failing to prove that you can speak, read, write and understand French well enough could jeopardise your ability to stay in Switzerland in the long term.

Our team of Super Profs, all FIDE specialists, has developed a special program to help you prepare for this very important exam. We make sure you acquire all the right language tools to feel confident and ready to pass this exam “haut la main” (with flying colours)!

Learn independently with our Prêt à FIDE e-course or fast forward your FIDE exam preparation with private lessons with one of our Super Profs.

What is « FIDE »?

FIDE stands for Français, Italiano, Deutsch, Switzerland's official languages, and was originally developed by the Institute of Multilingualism in Freiburg, on behalf of the Confederation. The FIDE exam was developed in order to promote linguistic integration in Switzerland.

The end goal of the Fide test is to provide Swiss residents who speak other languages with an opportunity to develop and provide proof of their competency in the official language of the canton where they live.

The Swiss FIDE exam is similar to the French DELF A1/A2/B1 exams in its format, but slightly easier to succeed at as it focuses mainly on situations which can happen in your everyday life, with special emphasis on actions and needs.

Another good reason to obtain your FIDE Passeport des langues (as opposed to the DELF certificates) is that its content is based on everyday life situations, which is definitely something useful to all Permis C and Swiss naturalisation applicants.

Also, as the FIDE Exam certificate if valid for life, it is indeed worth investing in an efficient preparation program which will assert your success.
