Bachelor in BTS - Services - Assurance

BTS - Services - Assurance is a bachelor-level vocational program in insurance services offered by the Ecole Nationale De Commerce in Paris, France. A BTS, or Brevet de Technicien Supérieur, is a two-year technical undergraduate degree within the French system, generally designed to prepare students directly for a profession through a mix of applied coursework and practical training. In an assurance track, coursework typically covers insurance law and contracts, risk assessment and underwriting principles, property and casualty coverage, life and health insurance, premium calculation, and claims handling, alongside client relations and sales technique, since insurance work combines administrative precision with direct customer contact. Students learn how insurance products are designed, priced, and sold, and how insurers and brokers manage the full lifecycle of a policy, from underwriting through to settling a claim. Practical exercises, including simulated client interactions and case studies on claims disputes, are typically part of the program, along with training on the software insurers use to manage policies. Graduates commonly move directly into roles such as insurance agent, broker's assistant, claims handler, or customer advisor within insurance companies, brokerages, banks, or mutual insurance societies. The qualification can also serve as a stepping stone toward further insurance or risk-management study for students who want to progress into more specialized or senior positions. At the Ecole Nationale De Commerce, the program runs over two years and is taught in French, matching standard practice for BTS degrees in the French system. The intake is expected to begin in September. Yearly tuition is 178 EUR, consistent with the nationally regulated, modest fee level applied to undergraduate programs at French institutions. Students considering this program in Paris should be comfortable with both administrative detail and client-facing work throughout the two years.
