Further Information

This programme is aimed at people who can already read and write but feel unsure and have difficulty applying these skills in everyday life.

Elements of scenario-based instruction according to fide principles

fide stands for "Français, Italiano, Deutsch in der Schweiz" and refers to the Swiss program for promoting linguistic integration. The goal of fide is to guarantee high-quality and efficient opportunities for developing and demonstrating language skills to foreign-language individuals who have immigrated to Switzerland. The didactic approach of fide is characterized by principles such as everyday relevance, action orientation, and needs orientation.
