Wannabe podiatrist advice needed

I would like some advice, I would like to train to be a Podiatrist but I am English and live in France, I have looked into completing a Foot Health Practioners course so that I could complete from home but I am not sure if this is a waste of money or even if the qualification is valid in france.
Completing training in France appears to take several years and my language skills are not good enough to study here either.
I guess my main question really is does anybody do a distant learning course for podiatrists?
As a full time course when you have small children and live in another country probably is not the ideal !

Looking forward to any advice !

 

Hello,

Sorry to put a downer on this idea, but I don't think that is possible. Most UK Universities doing podiatry are a 4 yr, full time Bsc (hons) degree course which involves ALOT of clinical practice. Therefore as it's such a hands on course it will not be possible to study from home. I would be shocked if this was not the case - in any country.
