Le label qualité FLE décerné à Groupe BTL

What is the Qualité FLE label?

The Qualité Français Langue Étrangère label makes it easier to choose a French as a Foreign Language (FLE) training program by identifying FLE centers that offer quality guarantees. Created in 2007, the certification is the result of an interministerial quality assurance process. Today, the label is managed by France Éducation International, a public body under the French Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports.

Which language centers have earned the Qualité FLE label?

The list of centers awarded the Qualité FLE label includes around a hundred organizations, the full list of which is updated on the site run by the government. Worldwide, only a modest proportion of specialized FLE centers have demonstrated that their offer meets the label's demanding criteria.

BTL may be one of the only centers with the Qualité FLE label to offer training in all languages, not just French. And what's more, our 360° services allow you to entrust us with the management of all your language training needs. We deliver beyond French courses themselves, solving all your language training problems, from level audits and certificates to customized pedagogical content and monitoring learners' progress.
