INFREP Montpellier

INFREP Montpellier is a vocational training centre at 4 rue Rondelet. Its French as a foreign language provision includes French for professional purposes. The agency also has a site in Nîmes, so anyone researching French courses in Montpellier should use the rue Rondelet address to identify the right centre. Training in workplace communication makes this a different study setting from a short holiday course.

French for working life

One example from the Montpellier programme shows how learners used a visit to the Émile Zola media library as material for writing. Participants wrote short pieces about their visit for the agency’s journal. Another group visited Château de Flaugergues during its French course. These examples illustrate how an experience in the city can become material for speaking, comprehension and writing, while the professional course also introduces ways of communicating in French working environments.

Language assessments in Montpellier

The Montpellier agency publishes information for the TCF, including the integration, residence and nationality version and versions connected with Canada and Québec. A test session and a French training programme serve different purposes and have separate arrangements. Learners deciding between them can use their intended outcome, such as workplace communication or a specific assessment, to identify the appropriate service at the Montpellier centre.
