Support offer

Acquisition of a professional certification by validating the acquired experience, particularly professional experience.

Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience (VAE) is provided by the French government (Ministry of Labour) . The aim is to obtain a certification and to have skills recognized. It is a multi-stage process, and it is coordinated by a tutor. The VAE allows you to obtain, in whole or in part, a diploma, title or certificate of professional qualification registered in the National Professional Certification Register (RNCP). The candidate must complete a file detailing his professional experience and the skills acquired. He then appears before a jury that decides to validate all or part of the diploma in question. In the event of partial validation of the acquired knowledge, prescriptions are proposed to the candidate in order to obtain the entire diploma.

Who can access this offer?

Any person, no matter his age, nationality, status, education level, who already had at least one year of working experience.
