Who is continuing education for?

With a view to developing skills, it is possible to pursue training or obtain a qualification throughout one's life (FTLV).

If you have already completed your initial education and would like to resume your studies or take a course to expand your knowledge, acquire or strengthen a skill, or even learn a trade, then you can turn to continuing education to achieve your professional goals.

You are considered to be returning to education and eligible for continuing education if you are in one of the following situations:
  • People entering the workforce: private sector employees, public sector employees, job seekers, self-employed professionals, entrepreneurs, etc.
  • More broadly, any adult who has left the school (or university) system and would like to enroll in a training program to achieve their career goals.
  • No one on a professional training contract.
Continuing education is also intended for employers wishing to develop their employees' skills.
