Alliance Française de Dhaka

TCFTEF

Alliance Française de Dhaka runs both e-TEF Canada and TCF Canada a few times a year, and each session has its own registration window. Places go first come, first served, and registration can close early once the quota is full. Aim to book as soon as a window opens rather than near the deadline.
