Lyon support

As part of our action, we offer everyone personalized support in person for those who live in the Rhône department and remotely for those who cannot travel and who live in the region, with the possibility of participating in workshops to facilitate the integration of students into higher education.

The steps of our support program in several stages:

First stage: the diagnosis to learn more about the beneficiaries, their needs, their projects, the documents required for university registration, etc.

Second stage: support, in particular for the equivalence of diploma and to discuss in more detail the beneficiaries’ projects. If both stages are completed, the beneficiaries will automatically move on to the third stage.

Third stage: thematic pre-registration workshop. It is mandatory for beneficiaries to attend the workshops on the CV and cover letter, the use of digital technology in order to be able to move on to the next stage (university registration).
__ If the beneficiaries have created their CV and/or cover letter by themselves, and the support worker has validated them during the diagnostic interview, they will be exempt from attending the two workshops.

Fourth stage: university registration. We carry out registration in the training courses with the beneficiaries, subject to the availability of all prerequisites.

Fifth step: post-registration thematic workshop. Workshops that will help beneficiaries facilitate their integration into the university: note-taking, dissertation, interculturality, etc.

Sixth step: post-registration follow-up, to determine what beneficiaries need in their course, registration to obtain a scholarship, accommodation, etc.
