IRCC accepts TCF Canada and TEF Canada. Both convert to NCLC levels, so our classes prepare you for either. We help you choose the test whose format and dates suit you.
Which NCLC level do I need?
It depends on your program. Many Express Entry applicants aim for NCLC 7 in all four skills, and other programs ask for different levels. Check your program's requirements on the IRCC website, then talk to us and we'll match you to a class.
