Well, for Art/Graphic Design students, it helps to get an idea of how Art has changed and evolved over the years in different places so that you see different styles and techniques and you can figure out your own place in the Art world. For other people, it is good general knowledge stuff... learning about Art and being able to appreciate different kinds is cool in anyone. Having a print on your wall, and actually knowing the artist a little, or being exposed to different kinds of Art so that you know what you like and what you don't... you never know when someone will drag you to a museum. Might as well enjoy it. :) From an educator point of view... art appreciation is part of a well-rounded person. We want people to learn technical skills as well as cultural skills. If you already know that you hate it and you're never going to like it, then you can learn enough to pass the test and go on with your art-free life. But who knows... maybe you'll like it if you give it a chance, and take up some kind of art as a hobby. Students should at least be exposed to art so that they know it is out there and have a chance to pursue it if they choose to do so.
The answer is in your question. The movement is known as French Impressionism.
Post-impressionism took place in France. It is a term that was coined by a British artist and art critic Roger Fry, and used to describe the development of French art since Manet.
