Last update
Would you like to have your professional and personal experience recognised with a view to obtaining a qualification or partial validation, gaining access to a training course or obtaining an exemption from specific modules in a given study programme?
To find out more, join the information sessions on accreditation of prior experiential learning (validation des acquis de l’expérience - VAE).
These sessions are organised by the National Institute for the Development of Continuing Vocational Training (Institut national pour le développement de la formation professionnelle continue - INFPC) in collaboration with the professional chambers and the Ministry of Education, Children and Youth.
VAE is open to anyone, whatever their age, level of education or professional situation.
The following qualifications are concerned by the VAE:
- the vocational capacity certificate (certificat de capacité professionnelle - CCP), the vocational aptitude diploma (diplôme d’aptitude professionnelle - DAP), the technician's diploma (diplôme de technicien - DT), the secondary school leaving diploma and the master craftsman's certificate;
- the advanced technician's certificate (brevet de technicien supérieur- BTS), the Bachelor's and the Master's degrees (only in terms of access to the studies or to benefit from certain course exemptions).
The information sessions will take place at the Luxembourg Lifelong Learning Centre (2-4, rue Pierre Hentges in L-1726 Luxembourg) on:
- Monday 28 September 2026 from 18.00 to 19.00 in French (presentation on site and via livestream);
- Wednesday 30 September 2026 from 18.00 to 19.00 in Luxembourgish (presentation on site and via livestream).
Participation is free of charge, but online registration to the sessions is mandatory.
