Language Course French
Full course description
French is both a working language and one of the two official languages of the UN, UNESCO, NATO, the European Union, the International Olympic Committee and the International Red Cross. French is the language of several international legal bodies. For an international law student, a good command of French is therefore essential.
By dividing candidates according to their level of proficiency in the language, this course will give everyone the opportunity to improve their knowledge of French, as well as discovering or perfecting their knowledge of legal French.
This intensive French course runs every day for three weeks. We will meet French-speaking players from the legal world and attend a trial in French in Liège (Belgium).
