All PD candidates are processed via a process called VAE. VAE stands for “Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience,” which is a French term for the recognition of prior learning and experience.
the VAE process in France through EIU-Paris involves the submission of a portfolio of evidence for evaluation by a VAE committee, which then assesses an individual’s work experience, skills, and competencies. If the candidate is approved, they can receive a diploma or certification from EIU-Paris. It’s important to note that the requirements for VAE may vary depending on the specific program or certification, and interested individuals should contact the Director General for more information.
A Professional Doctorate (PD) as offered by EIU-Paris is a type of doctoral award that typically focuses on practical applications of a particular field. The Professional Doctorate award can indeed be considered an honorary award, as it recognizes the recipient’s advanced knowledge and expertise in their field. In many cases, individuals who hold a Professional Doctorate award are entitled to use the title “Dr.” in front of their name. However, the specific use of the title “Dr.” may vary depending on the country and jurisdiction, and individuals should consult the relevant authorities or professional organizations for specific guidance.
The VAE Professional Doctorate (PD) is conferred on deserving candidates based upon the “Portfolio of Evidences” submitted to EIU’s team of VAE Assessors (validation of prior learning and experience), along with candidate’s social standing in his/her community/province/state/country, gauged and validated through his/her noteworthy contributions, as well as achievements in the form of creation/invention/problem-solving/social engineering efforts.
Typically, a VAE Professional Doctorate candidate’s Portfolio of Evidences may include (not restricted to) the following:

France has a very unique system, and many people around the world, including ministries of education in different countries, don’t understand the French system – which is one of the oldest education systems in the world, even older than the UK or American systems.
In France, a private university is allowed to choose to run French national curricula, which is delivered and assessed in the French language – for which the government would require local (national) accreditation.
Conversely, institutions like ours offer international type programs and degrees – which are then out of the scope of the French ministry to accredit anyway – and hence they keep away from all these programs as this is not their scope of function.
Another difference is the fact that our international type programs are all delivered and assessed 100% in the English language, because we want our students to be internationally employable and mobile (not restricted to France or French-speaking countries only, which in terms of the percentage of the world population, is significantly minuscule).
Hence the Ministry in France treats institutions like ours differently in that…
