Taking part in the 3rd Franco Ontarian Forum in Ottawa is much more than just attending a series of presentations.
It’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in a dynamic space where ideas flow, innovative practices are shared and collaborations comes to life. You’ll have the chance to discover concrete educational approaches that have proven results in the Franco-Ontarian context, experiment with digital tools adapted to your needs and leave with strategies you’ll be able to immediately apply in your classroom or organization.
The Forum is also a great opportunity to meet with colleagues, discuss the challenges you are facing and co create solutions for the current realities of Francophone post-secondary education.
