Groupement FLE
and the educational travel consultants

Workshops :
Groupement FLE regularly meets tour operators specialising in language studytravel from all over the world at workshops such as ALPHE London and ICEF Berlin. Pre-scheduled meetings allow us to prepare the exchanges in order to best meet their expectations. Groupement FLE is a quality reference for agents who wish to develop French language programmes or expand their range of destinations and schools in France. It is an entry point to contact and partner 48 quality and reliable schools.
Newsletters :
Every quarter, a newsletter is sent to our ETC contacts that we have met over the last few years and registered in our database (350 contacts). This is an opportunity to present our new centres, our new offers and specific programmes and to give regular up to date information about our centres.
Groupement FLE is a member of Gaela:
Gaela (Global Alliance of Education and Language Associations) has representatives of education associations or language schools from the main study travel destinations around the world, including Groupement FLE. We have been active participants in GAELA since 2008. The Gaela annual meeting and the email exchanges allow school associations to discuss issues of common interest concerning the language travel market and to foster a global dialogue, in particular with Felca (the equivalent association for agents).
Each of these school associations represents members who compete with each other, but who prefer to work together on certain subjects (quality, market developments, regulatory aspects, etc.) as they consider this to be a more constructive approach than out and out competition. This association is beginning to play a leading role in the industry. Groupement FLE participates in meetings and videoconferences on a regular and active basis.
