A diploma in Monegasque law will now be obtainable through a new programme devised by the Monegasque Institute for Training in Judicial Professions in collaboration with the Université Côte d’Azur and Université Aix-Marseille.
A new educational partnership, which creates an interuniversity diploma in Monegasque law, was established on 29th August at Monaco’s Palais de Justice.
It brings together the Monegasque Institute for Training in Judicial Professions (IMFPJ) with the Université Côte d’Azur and Université Aix-Marseille, which have joined forces to launch a new curriculum that will allow students studying in Nice and Aix-en-Provence to train in Monaco’s legal system from the start of this academic year.
The course will run in tandem with the universities’ other degree programmes and will take three years to complete. Face-to-face training and distance learning options are available.
“This diploma guarantees its future holders an easier understanding of Monegasque law and ease of transposition from one law to another,” reads the course information sheet from the Université Côte d’Azur. “It allows enrolled individuals to increase their knowledge of the standards applicable in the country and to improve their performance, both with a view to better integration into the Monegasque market and, for those who practice there, a better assured development of their practices.”
Talks are also underway with the University of Paris-Panthéon-Assas, which hopes to join the educational partnership with the IMFPJ in September 2025.
