Certificates of professional qualification are drawn up by one or more national joint employment committees for the professional sector.
When the professional qualification is created, these committees determine the legal entity holding the intellectual property rights. They may, in the same way and at any time, designate a new legal entity to take the place of the previous holder of the property rights to this certificate.
These certificates are sent to France Compétences and the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations.
They may be the subject of an application for registration in the national register of professional certifications under the conditions laid down in article L. 6113-5 or in the specific register provided for in article L. 6113-6 under the conditions laid down in the same article L. 6113-6.
