ALFMED Languages & EU Mobility

What ALFMED Languages & EU Mobility does

ALFMED Languages & EU Mobility is a privately held language training and European mobility organization founded in 2005 and headquartered at 21 bis Avenue Général de Gaulle in Perpignan, France, operating with approximately 11 employees. The company delivers language instruction across ten languages (French, English, Spanish, Catalan, Italian, German, Dutch, Chinese, Russian, Portuguese) to five primary customer segments: individual learners, businesses, school students, foreigners learning French, and Erasmus+ mobility participants. Delivery formats include in-person classes at its Perpignan training center, remote synchronous sessions via Zoom, and a proprietary "phygital" Media Lab enabling hybrid in-person/remote participation simultaneously.

Its technology stack centers on an internal learning management platform called ManageAll, which handles enrollment, CEFR-based level assessment via MCQ testing, needs diagnosis, planning, administrative tracking, trainer evaluation, and satisfaction surveys. The company also operates an AI-powered adaptive e-learning platform that personalizes text-based exercises across reading, listening, writing, and speaking skills based on learner progression. ALFMED functions as an official examination center for nine international certifications (TOEIC, TCF, BRIGHT, Cambridge, DELE, IELTS, TOEFL, CLOE, DALF/DELF) and administers France's Examen Civique for naturalization candidates. Revenue is generated through course fees (private lessons, group classes, conversation classes, intensive programs, corporate training), examination fees, Erasmus+ grant-funded mobility hosting with bundled student accommodation, and ancillary products including the Carte SMART Family loyalty card and Ireland language stays. The company accepts payment via direct billing, France's CPF (Personal Training Account) system, and OCAPIAT operator funding for corporate clients, and in 2025 expanded its addressable market by registering on Italy's MEPA public procurement platform to deliver PCTO mobility programs for Italian schools.
