The VAE (validation of acquired experience) is a device that recognizes the value of professional experience in the process of acquiring the skills necessary for the exercise of a trade, in parallel with traditional formation.
Contrary to popular belief, this is an old practice that dates back to a law of July 10, 1934 (Education Code L 642-9) and governed by a decree of May 16, 1975, which allowed to issue to technicians, with five years of professional practice in functions commonly assigned to engineers, the title of engineer graduated by the State.
After a revival in the 1980s, VAE is now well established.
It is indeed an individual right registered in both the Labor Code and the Code of Education.
Thus, “any person engaged in active life is entitled to validate the achievements of his experience, including professional, for the acquisition of a diploma, a title for professional purpose or a qualification certificate . “
