Students on the BTS MCO work-study program are trained to take charge of a small commercial unit or part of a larger structure (boutique, supermarket, sales agency, e-commerce site, etc.). Their responsibilities include team management, forecasting and performance evaluation, customer relations management, and product and service offering management.
Depending on the size of the company and seniority, they can be department managers, deputy store managers, sales animators, account managers, sales advisors, sales consultants, branch teleconsultants, cashier managers, group managers, etc. Self-confidence is another quality that candidates for the BTS MCO en alternance must possess.
The advantages of work-study BTS training: professional experience and a gateway to employment. We support our students in the workplace
Right from the pre-admission interview and throughout your training, our Corporate Relations Managers actively and individually support our candidates in developing and consolidating their career plans. Our aim is to help them find the career path, the industry, the company and the mission that will enable them to develop professionally and realize their ambitions.
Individual or group sessions to discover and deepen their knowledge of Company Search Techniques are offered to all candidates who so wish, right up to the signing of their apprenticeship contract. ISMAC’s secretariat will take care of all administrative formalities if the company so wishes.
ISMAC has set out to offer this BTS MCO diploma on a sandwich course basis in the best possible conditions, positioning itself at the forefront of innovation and eager to meet the expectations of its professional partners and students alike. All BTS MCO courses are taught in small groups of 18 students. This ensures that students’ work is closely monitored, and encourages teamwork just like in a company. For this BTS MCO, we only take motivated students.

Holders of the BTS MCO can go on to study for a professional license, a Bachelor’s degree or a business school.
The BTS MCO does not allow any transfer or equivalence. However, students who obtain a mark above 10 in one of the tests can retain the relevant block of skills for five years.
As a reminder, sandwich courses are free for all students. It is forbidden to charge them any fees, even for pre-registration.
However, they will receive a salary during their contract: pay simulator for work-study students.
Training costs an average of 7,500 euros, 100% of which is covered by the Opérateurs de Compétences (OPCO) of the professional branches.
