Réunion Island Centre
The CIEP Réunion Island Centre in Tampon
is a partner and a prime mover in education cooperation in the
Indian Ocean region.
Since October 1, 2001, the centre has taken
over the activity of the Centre international de formation et
d'études pédagogiques du Tampon (CIFEPT).
The Réunion Island Centre provides essential ground support for CIEP's
programmes and initiatives in the Indian Ocean, whether in terms
of education cooperation, internationalisation of the French
education system, or in promoting French language teaching.
The Centre organises regular training courses
on behalf of the cultural affairs departments of French embassies,
the local education authority for Réunion Island, and
for other institutions and education ministries from around the
world. Examples include refresher courses in French language
and in-service training for teachers and trainers of French as
a foreign language.
Course content is developed in partnership
with recipients after surveying participants' needs and commissioning
authorities' requests.
Training themes cover a broad range of areas,
such as language courses, teaching of speaking/writing skills,
corrective phonetics, French and francophone literature, civilisation,
and French spoken outside France.
Specific courses and fieldwork trips are also
organized covering subjects such as using authentic documentary
sources in the classroom, using ICTs in the classroom, approaches
to translation, classroom methodologies, training for teaching
inspectors, classroom observations, performing assessments and
the "Test de connaissance du français" certificate.
Courses are led by university-qualified trainers
with extensive practical and theoretical experience, thus enabling
them to provide specialised pre-service and in-service training
for teachers, education system administrators, inspectors and
head teachers.
