Appropriate knowledge of French
Members of professional bodies must have an appropriate level of knowledge of French to practise their profession. The professional bodies determine whether applicants must pass a French test and refer them as necessary to the Direction de l’évaluation du français. Passing the Office québécois de la langue français French exam allows applicants to receive certification of their knowledge of French, a step necessary for the professional body to issue a permanent licence.
