The holder of the Advanced Technician's Certificate in "Design of Product Production Processes" is required to carry out his/her profession in the fields of mechanical sub-assembly production.
He/she is a specialist in production processes involving the removal or addition of materials. They are involved throughout the production chain (definition - industrialisation - production, assembly and inspection) of the mechanical components making up industrial sub-assemblies, whether consumer goods for the general public, capital goods for companies, specialised tooling or high added-value mechanical assemblies.
The holder of this BTS acquires the skills to carry out the following activities:
Provide a technical and economic response to a request
Design production processes by integrating all technical, economic and environmental constraints
Prepare, launch and optimise the production of a sub-assembly
Define and implement real and simulated tests
Manage the production of a sub-assembly
Define and organise working environments
Manage teams
Apply a quality plan and a safety plan
Collaborate with partners
.
The course is organised into several skill modules, enabling step-by-step progression. It alternates between theoretical input, practical application and assessment sessions in order to promote practical and progressive learning.

Throughout the programme, students receive personalised support with regular monitoring by the teaching team and progress reviews to tailor learning to each individual’s needs.
A work placement also enables students to develop professional skills in a real-world setting.
Skills are assessed progressively through role-plays, practical exercises, professional projects and assessments carried out throughout the course.
Our teaching methodology prioritises a practical, work-focused approach: case studies, role-plays, practical scenarios and collaborative activities enable learning in conditions that closely resemble the real working world.
