These comprehensive regulations ensure that private distance education organizations maintain high standards comparable to public institutions, thus protecting the interests of students and maintaining the integrity of the educational system.
Operations-Related Aspects
The French Ministry of National Education outlines strict guidelines for the operations of private distance education organizations. These guidelines ensure that the standards of education provided are comparable to those in public educational establishments. Key aspects include:
- Program Conformity: The curriculum of private distance education must align with the declared programs (Article R.444-14, 1°).
- Regularity and Sufficiency: There must be a sufficient number of qualified teachers relative to the student enrollment, and all teaching methods must meet defined educational standards (Article R.444-14, 3°).
- Inspection and Control: These organizations are subject to regular inspections by members of the Ministry of National Education to ensure compliance with the set standards, covering educational content, teaching methods, and even financial management if public funds are involved (Article R.444-16).
Organizational Structure
The organizational structure of private distance learning institutions must meet specific criteria to ensure proper governance and effective delivery of education:
- Management Requirements: Managers must possess the necessary diplomas, titles, and references, and have a minimum of five years of teaching experience. Exceptions can be made by the rector for individuals with higher qualifications (Article R.444-11).
- Compliance and Discipline: Organizations are subject to educational and, in some cases, financial oversight by the rector of the academy. Disciplinary actions can be taken against the institutions or their staff if they fail to comply with the regulations (Articles L.444-3 and L.444-5).
Faculty Qualifications
The qualifications required for teaching staff in private distance education are comparable to those in public educational institutions. Specific requirements include:
- Minimum Qualifications: Teachers must have diplomas and titles equivalent to those required in public establishments for the same level of education (Article R.444-11).
- Moral and Professional Standards: Teachers and managers must meet moral and professional standards as defined by the decree. Foreign teachers from outside the European Economic Area must be authorized by the rector (Article L.444-5).
Student Learning
The regulations emphasize ensuring high-quality student learning experiences through well-defined educational programs and support structures:
- Detailed Study Plans: Each study plan must include detailed information about the curriculum, required student work, lesson scheduling, and the necessary prior knowledge (Article R.444-16).
- Educational Support: Institutions must provide robust educational assistance services, timely delivery of learning materials, and effective feedback on student work (Article R.444-14, 5°).
- Health and Safety Compliance: Any physical premises used for student gatherings must comply with health and safety regulations and be adequately equipped for the course material and student numbers (Article R.444-14, 6°).
R444-11 | The diplomas, titles and references required to teach in a private distance education organization cannot be lower, when the subject which is the subject of distance education is provided in public educational establishments, than those who are required for admission to teaching in public establishments of the corresponding nature and level. In other cases, the qualification required takes into account the nature and level of the education in question. To manage a private distance learning organization, it is necessary to demonstrate, in addition to the diplomas, titles and references required to teach in this organization, five years of teaching duties in any educational establishment. However, the rector of the academy may exempt from this last condition any person who has diplomas, titles and references higher than those normally required. |
R444-19 | A study plan, annexed to the contract, further specifies, in accordance with the second paragraph of Article L. 444-7: 1° The teaching program, the nature and content of the disciplines studied, the minimum number of work of all kinds required of the student, the staggering of lessons and work over time; 2° The level of prior knowledge necessary to undertake the study of this program, assessed by reference to the diplomas and qualifications required to follow education of an equivalent level in a public educational establishment; 3° The level of studies, assessed by reference to that of their first completion and, where applicable, to that of the corresponding studies in public education; 4° The average duration of studies, assessed in number of hours, taking into account the student’s prior level of knowledge as it results from his written declarations and the diplomas and titles he holds. |
R444-16 | The control is carried out by members of the inspection bodies of the Ministry of National Education and by members of the competent inspection bodies of the ministerial departments responsible for the teaching provided by the private distance learning organization. For courses at a higher education level, supervision is carried out by public higher education teachers accompanied, where appropriate, by people chosen for their competence. These teachers are designated, after advice from the president of the university to which they depend, by the rector of the academy, after possible consultation with the competent representative of the minister responsible for the education provided. |
