Objectives
The Diplôme de Capacité en Droit is designed to equip students with the legal knowledge required for a wide range of legal and paralegal professions.
The Diplôme de Capacité also gives access to certain civil service competitive examinations for category B positions.
The Certificat de Capacité, obtained with an average grade of 10 out of 20, enables direct entry into the 1st year of the LICENCE, majoring in Law. Students with an average of 15 over the two years can enroll in the 2nd year of the LICENCE in Law.
Organization
Knowledge control
All marks equal to or above 12 in the written exams from the first session are retained for the second session, unless the candidate decides otherwise and notifies the Registrar in writing within 8 days of the results being announced.
Candidates who have been withdrawn from the first session following the oral exams are only questioned in the second session in subjects for which they have obtained a mark of less than 12/20. The minimum mark of 12/20 is maintained only if the student has taken all the oral examinations.
Students may waive this provision and retake the examination.
Candidates for the Certificat de Capacité en Droit must register twice a year.
Students are informed of the days, times and places of the written and oral examinations by means of a notice board.
For each written examination, candidates are offered three theoretical subjects, two of which must be dealt with.
Two of these must be taken.
Only candidates who have obtained an average in the written tests are authorized to take the oral tests.
Admission or deferment is decided by the jury.
No appeals may be lodged against these decisions.
No one who has not passed the first-year examination may enrol for the second year.
The Certificat de Capacité en Droit is awarded on successful completion of the second examination.
