French government cuts hiring aid for higher education apprenticeships

actu.orange.fr (French)

The French government will reduce hiring aid for apprentices in higher education programs starting in 2026. This aims to save €900 million over two years. The financial aid for companies hiring apprentices with Bac+2 level diplomas and above, including BTS, DUT, licenses, and master's degrees, will be lowered. Aid for disabled apprentices remains unchanged. These changes are part of a broader effort to manage the costs of a program that has seen a significant increase in apprenticeships since 2017.
