Come to a land of incomparable cuisine, culture, and history. Nestled between the Rhône and Saône rivers, Lyon boasts of cobblestone streets, Roman amphitheaters, and one of Europe’s most extensive Renaissance neighborhoods. In 1998, 10 percent of the city was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Train the Trainer will be hosted at CEFAM, International School of Management. You’ll enjoy delicious catered lunches and dinner at a variety of local restaurants. Between meals and learning sessions, you’ll get to explore the city, spend an afternoon learning the French game of pétanque, and enjoy other local activities and treats!
