The Higher technician certificate (HTC) is a national diploma recognized by the State at level 5 (bac+2) approved by the RNCP (National Directory of Professional Certifications).
It therefore has the same value, regardless of where it is obtained. The HTC also makes it possible to obtain 120 ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) credits: a tool which attributes academic recognition to the
diploma, and therefore makes it possible to benefit from facilitated mobility between establishments at national, but also European level.
The duration of studies for a Superior Technician Certificate is 2 years in a high school or school.
