A new ministerial decree, dated September 28, 2026, establishes the professional title of Digital Learning Designer, a level 6 professional certification. This new qualification aims to frame the professions of digital training design and delivery, responding to the rapid evolution of the sector and the growth of online learning.
The professional title, awarded in the name of the Ministry of Employment, is registered with the RNCP under reference RNCP42901. Its skills framework, assessment methods, and access routes are detailed in the corresponding file. The certification is structured around three main skill blocks: designing accessible digital learning paths, creating digital training content with an eco-design approach, and disseminating digital learning paths while facilitating their adoption by learners.
Training organizations wishing to host examination sessions for this certification must obtain accreditation from the competent services of the Ministry of Employment. In Nouvelle-Aquitaine, the DREETS (Regional Directorate for Economy, Employment, Labour, and Solidarity) provides the necessary information regarding application procedures and applicable conditions for organizing these exams on its website.
Furthermore, Cap Métiers offers a guide to professional certifications related to training, professional advice and support, and human resources, listing the various certifications available in this field.
