Preparing for the agrégation in Chinese

Inalco and Université Paris Cité (formerly Université Paris Diderot) jointly organize a preparation course for the agrégation in Chinese (external and internal). This course can be taken even if you don't intend to sit the exam within the year. It aims to prepare candidates for the competitive exams (methodology, Chinese linguistics, modern and classical literature syllabus, history syllabus, theme and version translation techniques, oral preparation), but also aims to offer enriching training to any Chinese speaker and teacher wishing to develop their skills and knowledge throughout their professional life.

Since the start of the 2021 academic year, this preparation is given entirely by distance learning (synchronous courses on Zoom + dedicated Moodle platform, with a few groupings in Paris during the year) and is managed by the professional and continuing education departments of both establishments.

Pre-requisites: validated Master 1 or Capes. TCF 6 (or DALF) for candidates without a French diploma and a very good level of written, oral and literary Chinese. An application form is available online at CanditOnline.
