Revising your institutions the way you would learn a language on your phone : that is the promise of the app « Swiss Naturalization Test ». Originally built by a candidate preparing for his own exam, this playful tool, a Duolingo of citizenship, has now won over the canton of Neuchâtel. The Service de la cohésion multiculturelle (COSM) has even entered into a partnership to make sure the cantonal questions are always up to date. Valuable help for the thousand or so people in Neuchâtel who aim for the red passport with the white cross every year.
