N:
"What do we do when the employee refuses to sign the PE? "

A:
"Remind the beneficiary that the signature only means that the interview has taken place. If he/she still maintains his/her position, then it is up to him/her to mention in writing that he/she does not want an interview.

N:
"In case of refusal of the beneficiary to attend the PE, who will be in charge of asking the reasons for the refusal?"

"On what criteria should the skills acquired be validated?

A :
"There are 4 levels of validation of skills :
