A class starts with 5 participants.
Accreditation is underway for all KLF schools and should be received by the 2nd quarter of 2024 at the latest.
2 programmes will be accredited according to the specific criteria of the German regions (Länder):
* super-intensive programme (40 lessons/week): 480€ per week + enrolment fees
* special BU 30-lesson course consisting of the INTENSIVE course (26 lessons) + 4 lessons (activity / visit and tutoring): 340€ per week + enrolment fees
In 2024, the program is offered only in the following 3 KLF schools: Annecy, Montpellier and Toulouse.
LES EXAMENS
Preparation for the Delf-Dalf exams can be done either during the individual lessons of the combined program (20+6), or during the specific online program.
> The combined 20+6 course is available all year round.
> The online program offered twice a year is organized by Langue Onze Toulouse-KLF , and sessions will end before 2 of the official exam dates. (The exam preparation program does not include exam registration)
Until Lyon Bleu is accredited as a Delf-Dalf examination center (during 2024), students can register with one of the current centers in Lyon.
Our partnership continues with the ILCF, whose schedule and fees were published in September.
Examinations included in long-term certification or diploma programs will be organized at the school. Until Lyon Bleu becomes a Delf-Dalf examination center, the school will be able to register students with one of Lyon’s examination centers if necessary.
