Method, practice and guidance: our tips to pass the civic exam — and how our programme prepares you, with free guidance to an approved centre.

A methodical preparation makes all the difference. Here is a three-step approach, and how our programme can support you.

1. Structure your revision

Spread the five exam topics over several sessions rather than revising everything at once. A clear plan avoids getting lost.

2. Practise regularly

Practice quizzes get you used to the real format of the test (40 questions, 80% correct required). Start now with our free quiz.

3. Get support

A teacher targets your weak points and speeds up your progress, especially as the exam approaches.

Our preparation programme

At Centre Zenith, we offer civic-exam preparation as a group course (in person, in Paris — Gare de Lyon), at 13 hours per week. It covers all five modules of the exam and includes corrected mock exams. Above all, free guidance to an approved exam centre (CCI or FEI) is included — you then register for the exam yourself (exam fees not included).

Two formulas, depending on how independent you are:

  • Fast-track — 24 hours (€300): focused preparation on the essentials, ideal if you already revise partly on your own.
  • Complete — 46 hours (€570): in-depth guidance, module by module, to be guided from start to finish.

Requirement: French level A2 minimum. Discover the two formulas or request enrolment — our team gets back to you quickly.
