You will be able to develop your career in both large companies and small and medium-sized organisations, in any sector of activity, particularly in the service sector, as well as in public administrations, carrying out administrative management and advisory tasks in labour, commercial, accounting and tax areas.
Within the CETT context, this training is reinforced by a specific focus on the use of generative artificial intelligence applied to the automation of administrative tasks and processes.

The programme promotes values such as sustainability and fosters transferable skills such as communication, teamwork and problem-solving.
