The person directly responsible for training the apprentice and acting as tutor is called the apprenticeship master.
The apprenticeship master’s role is to contribute to the apprentice’s acquisition in the company of skills corresponding to the qualification sought and the title or diploma prepared, in liaison with the apprentice training centre.
When the apprentice is recruited by an employers’ group mentioned in articles L. 1253-1 to L. 1253-23, the provisions relating to the apprenticeship master are assessed at the level of the user company that is a member of this group.
