TEF Canada at Alliance Française de Calgary
Alliance Française de Calgary runs TEF Canada in the Kahanoff Centre in the Beltline. Sessions are small — around ten seats — and demand is high, so dates are often taken months ahead.
Dates and registration are handled by the centre through the official CCI registry — Mocko does not sell exam seats.

Fee
On the day at any TEF centre

- Results are typically emailed one to four weeks after the sitting, depending on the centre.
- A TEF result is valid for two years from the date you sat it.

Where exactly is the TEF test centre in Calgary?
Alliance Française de Calgary is at #315, 105 12th Ave SE, Calgary, AB, T2T 6T7. Check your booking confirmation for the room number — larger centres run the exam in a different building from their main reception.
How do I book the TEF Canada at Alliance Française de Calgary?
The centre asks candidates not to phone about exam dates: the TEF/TCF manager works remotely and reception cannot see the schedule. Check the registration page instead, and pay as soon as a new date opens. You can also go straight to this centre's session list in the official CCI Paris Île-de-France (Le français des affaires) registry.
Which versions of the TEF does Alliance Française de Calgary offer?
This centre delivers TEF, TEF Canada, TEF IRN and TEF Québec (TEFAQ). That is what it is approved to run — the sittings actually scheduled vary month to month, so check the dates before you plan around it.
Which TEF Canada centre should I choose?
Any accredited centre produces the same, equally valid result, so choose on practicality: how soon a seat is free, how far you have to travel, and whether the centre offers the exact version of the test you need. Big-city centres run more sittings but sell out faster; smaller regional centres often have space when Montréal and Toronto do not.
Can I register for the TEF at the test centre in person?
Rarely. Most Canadian centres take registrations online only and explicitly say they cannot book you in by phone or at reception. Use the booking link on the centre page, or the centre’s own registration page where it has one.
What is the difference between TEF Canada and TEFAQ?
TEF Canada is the four-skill version accepted by IRCC for permanent residence and citizenship. TEFAQ (also written TEF Québec) is used for Québec immigration programs and is commonly taken as speaking and listening only. Most Canadian centres are accredited for both, but you book them as separate exams.
