Validation of prior learning
VAPP (Validation of Personal and Professional Experience)
The VAPP is a system that enables you to access training without having the required entry level, by validating your professional experience (whether salaried or not), the training you have taken or the personal skills you have acquired outside the training system.
Who is concerned?
- You must be at least 20 years old on the date you resume your studies, with the exception of top-level athletes.
- If you don't have a baccalaureate, you must have interrupted your studies for at least two years.
- If you have a baccalaureate, there are no special requirements.
You can submit as many validation requests as you like to one or more universities.
A VAPP application is valid only for the diploma and academic year chosen.

VAE (Validation of acquired experience)
VAE is an individual right that enables you to obtain all or part of a higher education diploma (Articles R613-32 to R613-37 of the French Education Code) through the recognition of knowledge and skills acquired through professional and personal experience.
All IEP diploma courses are accessible by VAE.
