Educational
opportunities for OECS nationals in the French West Indies |
October 10,
2007: CASTRIES, St Lucia: In order to show its
dedication to strengthening the ties between the French
Caribbean and the OECS, the University of the French West
Indies and Guiana (Université des Antilles et de la Guyane –
UAG) is offering a language training programme to new
applicants from the OECS.
While many students in the OECS learn French throughout
their primary and secondary education, some may find it
difficult to achieve the level of fluency required to
successfully complete a cycle of studies in higher education
in a French-speaking institution. Some applicants may not
speak French at all. |

In order to close
the language gap that may prevent some students to go on
with their projects, the University of the French West
Indies and Guiana is offering a free preparatory class.
This class is designed for dedicated and motivated students
with little or no previous knowledge of the French language.
Lessons cover 600 hours of French language, as well as
methodology classes, preparing students to enroll into a
bachelor degree programme of their choice at UAG.
The programme will be taught from January 2008 to June 2008
at the Schoelcher campus in Martinique, as a preparation for
the 2008-2009 university session.
Applications are open to citizens of the OECS member states
who hold an Associate Degree or A-level in a subject
relevant to the programme they wish to follow, and who wish
to apply at UAG or to any public education institution in
Martinique, Guadeloupe or French Guiana.
Tuition, registration and course material are free of
charge, and financial aid will be provided by UAG for the
duration of the programme to cover part of the boarding
costs.
