Reception

The first point of contact for most people when they visit the Alliance Française is the reception. 
This is the centre of all information. In addition to running the course enrolments and managing the students, the receptionists promote the cultural events to members, students and visitors.

Teaching Staff

Interns

We frequently welcome students from France who spend 3 months, 6 months or 9 months completing internships. Spending time abroad working in an organisation is a course requirement in French universities. The interns make an invaluable contribution to the Alliance Francaise. They may undertake specific assignments or work as cultural assistants on a variety of projects and events. 

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is made up of 12 francophone individuals who are elected annually. The Board of Directors are all volunteers. Their varied backgrounds assist the Alliance Française in delivery of its core activities such as education and cultural events.
