The national standardized exam of the Advanced Technician’s Certificate (Brevet de technicien supérieur-BTS) for the 2021 session, will be held on May 17-25, the Ministry of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and scientific research announced on Thursday.
The postponement follows the extension of the state of health emergency to May 20, as part of preventive measures taken to stem the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19), the ministry said in a statement.
The dates of the said exams are likely to be modified according to the development of the epidemiological situation in the country. The competent authorities will determine the conditions and arrangements for the conduct of these exams “in the weeks and months to come.”
Also, the ministry announced the adoption of updated standards in the determination of topics for the BTS exam, in light of the varying implementation rates of curricula in different cycles.
This measure, which is part of the concern to ensure equal opportunity for all candidates, has taken into account the disparities found in the pace of implementation of programs, the ministry concluded.
