Validation of Acquired Experience (VAE)

The Validation of Acquired Experience (VAE) is a process that allows individuals to obtain a diploma, title, or certificate based on their professional experience. This experience must be at least one year in duration, whether continuous or discontinuous, full-time or part-time, and can include various types of activities, such as paid work, voluntary work, union or association activities, internships, or work-study programs in the field relevant to the targeted certification.

These experiences may cover all or part of the requirements for professional certifications, including titles, licenses, master's degrees, doctorates, or engineering titles. A VAE candidate may submit only one application per calendar year for the same diploma, title, or certificate, and a maximum of three applications for different certifications during the same year.
