Introduction to the Orthophonist Capacity Program

Objectives

The primary objective of this program is to train students in the prevention, evaluation, and treatment of voice, articulation, and speech disorders. Additionally, the program aims to equip students with the skills to teach non-verbal communication methods to complement or replace these functions. Upon completion of the program, students will be able to work in various settings, including hospitals, specialized centers, and private practices.

To Apply

Since the 2020 academic year, access to orthophonist studies is done through Parcoursup. There is no bridge, and integration is done directly in the 1st year. Access to orthophonist training in France is limited by a national numerus clausus and is therefore conditioned by entry through Parcoursup.
