The training sessions will be carried out for a period of 13 to 14 months in the form of work-study employmenrt contracts (contrat d'alternance). A recognised certificate in the automotive sector is awarded at the end of the training. The positions sought are commercial advisers for new vehicles and used vehicles, technicians and mechanics, sales consultants for service or for parts and accessories. The recruitment is led by the raise in sales of hybrid-electric cars.
