Scenario-based teaching according to fide principles

fide stands for "Français, Italiano, Deutsch in der Schweiz" and refers to the Swiss program for promoting linguistic integration. The goal of fide is to guarantee high-quality and efficient opportunities for developing and demonstrating language skills to foreign-language individuals who have immigrated to Switzerland. The didactic approach of fide is characterized by principles such as everyday relevance, action orientation, and needs orientation.

ECAP Bern offers the nationally recognized certificate examination "Sprachnachweis fide" weekly. Registration at the reception with Advice & Administration.
