The Robert de Sorbon Foundation is an emblematic academic institution located in the heart of Paris. Its rich history dates back to the 13th century when Robert de Sorbon, a priest and theologian, decided to create a house of studies for poor students in the city. This visionary initiative laid the foundation for one of the most prestigious and influential universities in the world: La Sorbonne.<\/p>

La Sorbonne quickly became a major intellectual center in Europe, attracting students and scholars from all walks of life. Over the centuries, it has played an essential role in the development of higher education in France and has witnessed many key historical and intellectual events. Famous figures such as Thomas Aquinas, Ren\u00e9 Descartes, and Jean-Paul Sartre studied or taught at the Sorbonne, contributing to its global influence.<\/p>

In 1899, the society of friends of the universities of Paris was created, which in 2009 became the Robert de Sorbon Foundation, recognized as a public utility. The foundation’s objective is to implement effective and innovative programs aimed at promoting the transmission of knowledge, particularly at the level of higher education and research. The Cours de civilisation fran\u00e7aise de la Sorbonne (CCFS), created in 1919, are thus part of the academic institutions whose action falls within the framework of the Robert de Sorbon Foundation.<\/p>

The Cours de civilisation fran\u00e7aise de la Sorbonne (CCFS)<\/h2>

The Cours de civilisation fran\u00e7aise de la Sorbonne (CCFS) are indeed an essential component of the Robert de Sorbon Foundation; created with the aim of spreading French language and culture throughout the world, the CCFS today play a crucial role in teaching French as a foreign language (FLE) and promoting French civilization to international students.<\/p>

The CCFS offer a variety of French language teaching programs tailored to the needs of international students. Whether for their general French courses, preparation for French exams such as the DELF and DALF, or specific French courses (business French, academic French), the CCFS are renowned for their expertise in teaching the French language.<\/p>

The CCFS are located in the heart of Paris, offering students the opportunity to learn French in an immersive environment. The institution welcomes students of all nationalities and levels, from beginner to advanced, who benefit from courses combining French language learning and cultural discovery. Through their commitment to quality teaching and their promotion of French culture, the CCFS contribute \u2013 alongside the Robert de Sorbon Foundation \u2013 to strengthening ties between France and the rest of the world and allow international students to have an unforgettable linguistic and cultural experience at the Sorbonne.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
