Consortium d’apprentissage virtuel de langue française de l’Ontario online programme

Since 2001 the 12 French-language school boards in Ontario have collaborated to offer students distance and online education through the Consortium d’apprentissage virtuel de langue française de l’Ontario (iNACOL 2010). The Ontario Ministry of Education states that in 2010 12 French-language school boards in Ontario launched the Consortium Virtual Learning French language in Ontario.

Its website is http://www.apprentissageenligne.org/ .

Further information

The Consortium, falls under the same regulations as the two English language programmes (the Ontario eLearning Consortium and the Ontario Catholic eLearning Consortium) in the province.

The delivery model, is primarily asynchronous although students are able to contact their teacher via telephone or using synchronous tools at any time during the school day.

The Consortium reported that its online learning programme saw 1,300 successful course completions in 2009-10 with a failure rate of just 4%.
