📍 This page details the French apprenticeship ecosystem. Local content stays in French to preserve accuracy (CFA, RNCP codes, conventions collectives, geography). You can browse offers and apply from any language.

The 35,000 local authorities (town halls, departments, regions, EPCIs) hire 6,000 apprentices per year to anticipate massive retirement (1/3 of staff are leaving by 2030).

Apprenticeship in local authorities often leads to a facilitated internal competitive exam after 1 to 3 years of practice.
