Lhe balance of the apprenticeship tax is an essential resource for our training courses. It is a compulsory contribution that each employer must pay annually for the current calendar year. This tax helps to provide students with the resources they need to succeed at university and enter the world of work. Each company is free to choose the beneficiary for payment of the balance of its apprenticeship tax.
Why choose to pay your apprenticeship tax to the UG?
With 4,237 students and almost 49 degrees to be awarded by 2023, the University of French Guiana is the only French-speaking and European university in South America. Its ambition is to become a university benchmark in Amazonia.
By supporting the University of Guyana with your apprenticeship tax, you are helping to :
- Financing new training courses tailored to the needs of the socio-economic world,
- Enhance the documentary resources available to students and socio-economic players,
- Acquire teaching equipment for our training sites (scientific equipment for practical work, IT equipment, audiovisual equipment, etc.),
- Developing resources for distance learning.
