Partner DLI college or academy classes: which French route fits you?

At EduKation, there are two main ways to learn French. Here’s how to think about them.

A French program at a partner DLI college

A DLI is a designated learning institution, a school approved by a provincial or territorial government to host students. A college program gives you a fixed structure: set intakes, a schedule, and a program completed through the college.

Good fit if: you want a formal, structured program and a clear start and end date.

Classes at our academy

Our academy classes are more flexible and open to everyone: work permit holders, students, PRs and citizens.

Good fit if: you want to learn at your own pace, build confidence for work and daily life, or brush up before a test.

Not sure?

That’s what the consultation is for. We’ll ask about your goals, timeline and budget, and walk you through dates, fees and payment plans for each option. If your questions are about permits or PR, we’ll connect you with a licensed consultant.
