Not a bad idea to add a field for this. Shouldn't be too much work
either.

If it goes on the main frontpage, I think it needs to have a headline
in english - just like we require for news. I personally find it very
confusing that we have a number of professional services registered
with no description in english, but those are at least not on the
frontpag.e
Anyway. How about writing a short ingress in one or two paragraph with
like "This is training about foo and bar, held by Dalibo, in french",
and then follow up with the details in french?

Yeah. First thing we need to do is to store it, then we need to figure
out a good way to split it up. But it shouldn't be hard to do a split
of the eventsarchive page, as long as we can decide in which order to
split it.
