Assessment
There are 3 face-to-face tests in this course that include a written,
spoken, reading and listening component .Please note that tests are
worth 55% and assignments 45% of your final mark. 10% of the
assignment mark will be based on a portfolio of your work to be
submitted at the end of the course. You must pass the Exams in order
to pass the course. There is no Provincial Exam for this course. If there
is an unusual discrepancy between the assignment marks and test
marks, VLN reserves the right to use only the test scores as a final
evaluation for the course. There may be the option of writing an exam
called DELF, which is a test of French that is internationally recognized.
Successful completion of this test will allow you to have a diploma.
