Label - Qualité français langue étrangère
Every year more than 100 000 people come to France to learn French. Some 300 language centres (public, private or associative) offer their services in this respect. To address such situation, FRANCE through the participation of three ministries. Higher Education and Research, Foreign and European Affairs, and Culture and Communication --- has decided to establish a certification system of the French foreign language centres established on French territory. For this purpose, a label entitled “French foreign Language quality” has been created. This process aims at the official identification, recognition and promotion of the schools where the language programs and related services present the required quality guarantees. The Centre international d'études pédagogiques (CIEP), a national public institution administratively related to the ministry for National Education, is in charge of implementing this certification system. For more detailed information, please visit the www.ciep.fr/qualitefle/index.php page.

BILDUNGSURLAUB
Hinter dem Begriff "Bildungsurlaub" verbirgt sich das 1976 von der Bundesregierung Deutschland verabschiedete Recht auf bezahlte Bildungsfreistellung. Damit hat sich die Bundesregierung verpflichtet, dafür zu sorgen, dass jede Arbeitnehmerin und jeder Arbeitnehmer eine bestimmte Anzahl an bezahlten Arbeitstagen im Jahr für seine individuelle Fort- und Weiterbildung vom Arbeitgeber freigestellt wird. Da Bildung aber in die Zuständigkeit der Ländergesetzgebung fällt, gibt es in jedem Bundesland unterschiedliche Regelungen und Handhabungen. ESL ist in einigen Bundesländern Deutschlands als Institution für Bildungsurlaub anerkannt.
