Training courses to teach FLE
Do you love the French language and want to teach it? There are many training courses available to help you become a teacher of French as a foreign language!
FLE studies
The aim of FLE university courses is to train professional teachers and trainers in the field of teaching French as a foreign language. The organisation of FLE courses in universities is based on the Licence – Master – Doctorat system. There is no FLE degree in its own right, but a 120-hour FLE course that complements a degree in modern literature, language sciences or modern languages. Completion of this course is generally a prerequisite for enrolment in a Master’s degree in FLE.
All information and university courses are available on the Agence de promotion du FLE website.

DPAFP-FLE : Professional Diploma from
Alliance française de Paris
The Diplôme Professionnel de l’Alliance Française de Paris en Français Langue Étrangère (DPAFP-FLE) combines methodology, pedagogy and practical experience of teaching French as a foreign language. Thanks to the methodological and pedagogical foundations taught throughout the course, as well as observation of classes and contact with learners of different nationalities, you will be fully operational once you have obtained the DPAFP-FLE.
DAEFLE
The Diplôme d’Aptitude à l’Enseignement de Français Langue Étrangère (DAEFLE) is a diploma certifying skills in teaching French to non-French speakers, co-organised by the Alliance française Paris Ile-de-France and the CNED (Centre national d’enseignement à distance). The course, which may be initial or continuing, is distance learning. This diploma course is aimed at professionals, but is not a university degree.
To be admitted to the course, you need to pass an access test, managed by the Alliance française de Paris and carried out online only. Once the modules of the CNED course have been validated, a final exam is required to obtain the diploma.
The Institut français du Luxembourg is a test centre for your final exam, in the Grand Duchy, subject to availability. Following the reorganisation of the DAEFLE, candidates registered for the final test will have to take one test per block of skills and one specialisation test.
The next session of the final exam will take place on 12 & 13 December 2024.
Fill in the registration form to take part in the final test.
Send the completed form to etudes@ifluxembourg.lu before 13 November 2024..
