Course participation
Attendance in the courses is mandatory. To successfully learn French, you must:
- Actively participate in your courses
- Respect the rules of attendance and behaviour of your training facility;
- Contribute to a good classroom environment.
You may lose your access to courses or financial assistance if:
- You are absent and your absences interfere with your learning and the smooth running of the class;
- You behave inappropriately in a way that interferes with, either:
- To the orderly conduct of the class,
- To the continuation of your training;
- You have a serious learning problem that your course cannot address. If this is the case, we may be able to assess your learning difficulties and redirect you to another course that can meet your particular needs;
- If your training is given at a distance and you are not in Québec.
In the event that your training is interrupted, you can reapply for admission to a French course under certain conditions.
Evaluations
Your French language learning is assessed during your courses and at the end of each session.
Your results can be used as proof of your French skills should you wish to apply for Canadian citizenship.
If you believe that your evaluation results do not reflect your French skills, you can request a grade review.
- Fill out the form Demande de révision des résultats d’évaluation de fin de cours (PDF 121 Kb) [Request for review of end-of-course evaluation results – In French only] and sign it.
- Give it to the person in charge at the educational institution where you are taking your courses.
Depending on your training location, you have five working days after the last day of the session or the transmission of your results to submit a request for review.
Check with your training location for more information.
