The fide language certificate is one of three ways to get the fide language pass. With the fide language pass you can officially prove your knowledge of German. The language passport is also recognized by the federal government and cantons as proof of German language skills for settlement permits.

The fide language certificate is the only exam with which you can prove your oral and written knowledge separately - but with just one exam.

Do you need level B1 verbally and only A2 in writing? This is easily possible with the fide language certificate. Or do you only need a certificate for oral but not written? This is also possible with the fide language certificate – not with all other certificate exams for German.

Please complete the registration form and send a signed copy to: office.bern@flyingteachers.com or by post to Flying Teachers, Marktgasse 25, 3011 Bern.

Note: An additional fee may be charged for subsequent registrations (after the official registration date). Further information on request.
