EFAP, School of Communication (GROUPE EDH)

EFAP (École de Formation des Attachés de Presse), also known as EFAP School of Communication, is a private French higher education institution specializing in communication, journalism, public relations, digital marketing, advertising, and audiovisual media. Founded in 1961, it is one of France’s best-known communication schools and operates as part of Groupe EDH, a network of creative and communication-focused institutions. The school delivers Bac+3 and Bac+5 level programs designed for careers in media, corporate communication, digital strategy, and content production. EFAP maintains multiple campuses across France—typically in Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, and Lille—and also offers international study opportunities through locations such as New York and Shanghai, reflecting its strong focus on professional training and international exposure. Programs emphasize hands-on learning, internships, and industry partnerships, preparing graduates for roles in press relations, journalism, social media, brand communication, and audiovisual production rather than academic research.
