Je te tiens au courant dès que j'ai plus de nouvelles. bonne journée, Valérie

Hello Christophe
I still don't have confirmation about my arrival dates (my various / all of my managers having been on holidays these past few weeks).

On the contract, it should still be the first of July.
However, there is a chance that I will be available from mid-June / the middle of June.
I will let you know when I have more information.
Have a good day,
Valerie

Christophe,
Je rebondis sur l'aspect formation suite à une discussion que j'ai eue avec Lionel. Il m'a fait part d'une journée de formation concernant un outil de gestion utilisé par les PS et ceci le mardi 15 mai.
J'ai validé avec mon employeur que je peux prendre ce jour de congé si besoin, sans que cela ne prolonge la période de préavis.
Donc si cela est possible, je serai très heureux d'y participer, ce qui me donnera l'occasion en plus de faire connaissance avec mes futurs collègues.
Merci d'avance pour ta réponse Valérie

formation - professional training/ training/ team-building/ professional development

Christophe,
I'm getting back to you regarding the professional training after a discussion I had with Lionel
He told me about a training day about a management tool used by the PS, which will be on Tuesday the 15th May.
I checked with my employer that I can take this day off if needed, without extending the notice period.
So , if this is possible, it would be a pleasure to participate and would also give me the occasion to meet / get to know my future colleagues
Thank you in advance for your answer.

If you want to come to my workplace by transportation from CDG airport, you should take the RER B to Chatelet les Halles, and then take the Metro 1 to George V. 

When you are on the Champs-Elysée, you have to walk down the street and turn right into Rue Lincoln. We are at number 12. 

Under the porch take the door on the left and press the button under the number to open the door. 

We are on the 4th floor. 

See you soon,
