Overview
About Alternance
Work-study covers two schemes: the apprenticeship contract (16-29, degree-leading) and the professionalization contract (no age limit for some audiences, qualifying or certifying). In both cases, the employee alternates company periods and training periods, with pay set as a percentage of minimum wage by age.
Learni acts as the training organization within partner degree programs (BTS, Bachelor, Master) for Qualiopi-certified technical modules: cybersecurity, AI, cloud, dev. OPCO coverage is 100% of the pedagogical cost based on the NPEC.
