How to book in Calgary, step by step

  1. Open the TEF or TCF registration-process page. Sessions are grouped by month and each month shows as “Registrations” or “SOLD OUT”.
  2. Pick a date and pay by credit card. Seats are first-come, first-served and there are no refunds.
  3. An email then sends you a registration form, where you upload a valid ID (passport or driver’s licence). Unpaid forms are voided.
  4. Staff register you on the exam provider’s platform by hand during business hours and email a confirmation. If nothing arrives within a week, contact the centre.
  5. A few days before the exam you receive an official convocation with your schedule.

Good to know in Calgary

Posts sessions month by month on its registration pages; each date shows as bookable or SOLD OUT, without a seat count. Each session is capped at 10 seats.

  • Each session is capped at 10 seats, so months sell out quickly.
  • Don’t phone about exam dates. The TEF/TCF manager works remotely, is not reachable by phone, and reception has no extra information. Only questions about the exam itself go to tests@afcalgary.ca.
  • Bring two valid pieces of ID, and make sure at least one has a photo.
  • Arrive at the time on your convocation: you won’t be let into the room once the exam starts.
  • Phones are collected after the ID check and kept for the whole session, including breaks between tests.
  • The Kahanoff Centre campus has no walk-in reception and is open only to registered candidates on exam days.
