Before your exam

Resitting costs 20 days of waiting. So you may as well arrive ready the first time.

One to four mornings of preparation before your exam, the last one can be that same morning, with the same length and the same timer as the exam. The first morning takes place 15 days after the order at the earliest.

Our trainers have been trained by TEF IRN examiners.

We hold the exam at our exam centre approved by the CCI Paris Île-de-France.

Everything about paying in instalments

Before choosing your date, three rules to know

  • Lateness. Arrive 15 minutes before the time shown on your exam notice. In line with the certifier’s instructions, no candidate is admitted once the exam has started; for the civic exam, any lateness leads to access being refused. Unjustified lateness is treated as an absence: the registration remains payable. No penalty or late fee of any kind is applied, and justified lateness gives the right to a postponement, under the certifier’s conditions.
  • Refunds. Possible up to 7 working days before the session date. After this deadline, or if you are absent on the day of the exam, the registration remains payable.
  • Postponement. Only with a valid supporting document accepted by the CCI Paris Île-de-France. The decision rests with the certifier: we pass on your request and your supporting document.

A level missed means a new exam to pay for and a new date to wait for. On the day, every minute counts: in class, we practise against the clock. A little help before the exam? Take the free level test

If you are following a training course funded by your personal training account, the TEF IRN exam is already included in your course: nothing more to pay for the exam. Take the free level test first to find out whether a preparation course would be useful to you.
