Eligibility: who may apply?

The call is open to all civil servants, women and men, working in the various State administrations and territorial collectivities, provided they meet the specified conditions. The text distinguishes two situations:

First situation: established civil servants and contractual staff

• Be classified at least in the second grade of administrator, or in the State engineer framework, or in a grade with an equivalent indiciary scale.
• Hold at least a certificate or diploma allowing access to the third grade of administrator or an equivalent grade.
• Have at least two (2) years of service as an established civil servant, or three (3) years for contractual staff, within State administrations and territorial collectivities.

Second situation: staff already performing head of service duties

Established civil servants and contractual staff who, on the date of the announcement of the vacancy for a head of service post, are performing the duties of head of service may also apply.

Exception based on seniority

Where the interest of the service so requires, established civil servants and contractual staff classified in the third grade of administrator or a grade with an equivalent indiciary scale may exceptionally apply, by derogation from the preceding provisions, provided they have at least fifteen (15) years of actual service in State administrations or territorial collectivities, including at least four (4) years in that grade.

Duties and expected skills

The duties of the posts to be filled and the required skills are defined by the reference framework of jobs and skills annexed to the order. According to the job sheets, some functions involve driving and conducting training policy and managing administrative and pedagogical supervisory staff: contributing to competence frameworks, defining statutory rules, managing the database, identifying quantitative and qualitative needs, designing the certification plan for technical-pedagogical skills and introducing ICT into the pedagogical process.

Other posts concern adapting and setting up mechanisms that foster the development of in-service training: planning information and awareness programmes, monitoring the training component in integrated vocational training projects, preparing methodological guides and procedural manuals, preparing and monitoring the work of management bodies, monitoring investment agreements and training support schemes, and supporting functional literacy plans.

The job sheets require knowledge of the organisation and operation of the vocational training system and of the Department’s missions and intervention conditions, mastery of engineering and facilitation methods, the ability to formalise and cost a project, draft reports and information materials, use numerical data and measure the impact of proposed choices.
