In line with the commitment driven by the APRIL group, the APRIL Foundation has joined forces with four other foundations: the Olympique Lyonnais Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne Rhône-Alpes Foundation, the SEB Group Foundation and the AGEFOS PME Foundation, to offer 500 young people the chance to obtain a spelling certification at the contest held at the Stade de Gerland, in Lyon: the « Stade de l’écrit »
This event enabled young people to improve their spelling skills considerably and to promote their French language skills on their CVs. A significant advantage in a world where 82% of recruiters pay attention to applicants' spelling and where 30% admit to rejecting CVs which contain spelling mistakes.
