All postgraduate students at BSBI Paris are required to complete a mandatory internship in France of up to 6 months.
Internship
An internship bridges the gap between academic learning and professional practice. It gives you hands-on experience, industry exposure, and a real advantage as you launch your career.
As part of your studies at BSBI, you will complete a mandatory internship of up to 6 months. This is your opportunity to take the first steps in your chosen field and gain clarity on your professional path.
Why the RNCP Title Level 7 Sets You Apart
Unlike a standard internship certificate, the RNCP Titre Level 7 is officially registered with the French government. It confirms you have met national standards for management-level competence. This gives you a recognised edge when applying for roles in France, across Europe, and internationally.
Your Internship: Real Experience, Officially Validated
Upon graduation, you will complete a mandatory internship in partnership with PPA Business School or ESGI. This experience goes beyond standard work placement.
It serves as official validation of your professional competencies, recognised at the highest level by the French state.
What This Means for Your CV
You will earn an RNCP Title Level 7 — a state-certified credential issued by the French Ministry of Labour. It formally recognises your management and operational skills.
It is government-backed proof that you have successfully applied advanced competencies in a real business environment.
Three ways this transforms your professional profile:
State-Validated Professional Experience. Your CV will not simply list a 6-month internship. It will carry a government-recognised qualification confirming you have demonstrated management-level skills in a real workplace context.
Proof of Managerial Competence. The RNCP Titre Level 7 certifies that you can lead projects, manage teams, analyse business performance, and deliver results — precisely the skills employers seek in junior and mid-level management candidates.
Dual Validation on One CV. You graduate combining academic excellence with professional certification, positioning you as a candidate who brings both strategic thinking and proven workplace expertise.
The Result
You graduate as a professionally certified manager — with state-validated expertise and the confidence to lead from day one.
Additionally, graduates who complete their programme through PPA or ESGI may be eligible to apply for a post-study residence permit in France, subject to their nationality and applicable regulations.
