French for Professionals Certificate
This project proposes the development of a new, fully online undergraduate certificate in French for Professionals, to be launched in Fall 2018.
In Canada, new graduates, professionals and other job-seekers who can communicate effectively in French as a Second Language (FSL) are more likely to be successfully employed in bilingual workplaces (Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development, 2016).
The goal of this new certificate program is to enable learners of French as a Second Language to develop and enhance language skills to work in bilingual professional environments such as healthcare, government, law and other industries.
