I work for the Federal Government of Canada, and for reasons that are hopefully obvious, it's important that they are able to have a pipeline that teaches French to people over the age of 25 in about a year. It's not as simple as just watching media though. The French training for public servants starting at 0 French is a full-time job. People literally disappear from their jobs for a year or more in order to learn French.
Is there a way to access this as a fellow Federal employee (dont wanna elaborate over here)
Ask your manager. Different departments have different amounts of training available. Also look into the CSPS French training.
At my department, there is also in-house part-time training. It just varies a lot from department to department.
The full-time training I mentioned is usually offered to people who are lined up for a manager/director job since there's the baguette-glass-ceiling
It probably would be a good idea not to publicly identify as a goc worker in a social media forum.
We're allowed to. We just can't claim to speak for the government.
