Delete likely until a better article can be made as I found nothing aside from a few browser links. SwisterTwister talk 04:33, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as no evidence of notability, Fails GNG. –Davey2010^Talk 18:32, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per below - I had completely missed the fact it's the largest in Europe although that could just be bullshit but sources found which all meet GNG so keep. –Davey2010^Talk 01:00, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep it is the largest provider of osteopathic education in Europe. As an accredited program its graduates are accepted throughout Europe."Grundständige Ausbildung ohne medizinischen Basisberuf". Österreichische Gesellschaft für Osteopathie.; "L'identité Paradoxale de l'Ostéopathie: Impact des Législations et Règlementations sur son Évolution" (PDF). Institut de Formation en Ostéopathie du Grand Avignon. I have added a couple of citations to the article, primarily for WP:V purposes. See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Not that the article doesn't need work, it does and it is a little promotional in tone. But that is fixable. --Bejnar (talk) 19:02, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article is rather promotional in tone but does likely have notability as the largest provider of osteopathic education in Europe. Some sources for GNG. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 18:18, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I have made some deep cuts per WP:WPSCH/AG, and would suggest the bulleted § History be reduced to a short prosed section if it can be sourced. As WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES says: "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools are usually kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists." The institution does exist and sources, albeit maybe not in abundance, exist to verify it. -- Sam Sailor ^Talk! 09:30, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
