The training sessions last 14 weeks with 14 hours of training per week.
THE PUBLIC IN AN EXILE SITUATION
For internal courses, the public has little or no education. Whether in lessons or support, learners are encouraged to develop skills that aim to become autonomous, to “do it alone” and to learn how to learn.
The teachers are trained and specialized in teaching FLE/alpha/FOS and know the exiled public, which allows them to be effective and adapt the support and teaching.
PROGRAMS
- All of Thot’s objectives are based on the needs of learners.
- Educational programs are designed based on the required level. Trainers can freely follow and adapt the objectives and themes according to everyday's reality.
- Learning is also valued and developed through cultural outings and artistic activities.
A GLOBAL SUPPORT
Thot's mission is to lead individuals towards autonomy and is able to provide comprehensive support according to students' requests.

- Thot supports trainers by offering educational training based on identified needs and promotes the exchange of resources.
