The law establishes procedures for candidates preparing for vocational diplomas in France, including the baccalauréat professionnel, brevet professionnel, and brevet de technicien supérieur. It outlines the process for candidates to submit a positioning request to their educational institution, and the rector's role in evaluating these requests along with the pedagogical team's input. The positioning decision applies across academic institutions within the same academy and affects candidates' eligibility for examinations in other academies based on their training duration. Furthermore, the law details the documentation required from candidates and the flexibility of the curriculum based on prior qualifications or dispensations.
