Course Programmes
At Ecole des Malletiers (EdM) Nicolas Gilbert of Belgium there are six training and education curricular tracks ("paths"), with on-campus courses and workshops taught in either French, English, or Dutch, or in a bilingual mode. Three paths are also offered by the affiliate Ecole Jean PARÉ of France.
Most courses are offered individually, on a part-time basis, private courses, and/or seminar mode, and online documentation. Please contact us for further information, course details, fees, place availability, grants and scholarships, and other practical matters related to the Belgium and France schools.
New, as of 2022-2023 : immersion workshops of 3 to 5 consecutive days; an option combinable with the modes listed above.
In light of the high level of specialisation of the studies, and the degree of personal attention offered to each student (including entrepreneurial coaching), the number of participants per year is very limited.
Paths (curricular tracks)
Path #1 (P1) The Conservation and Restoration of Antique Trunks and related Travel Equipment. The programme leads towards a Certificate of Fundamental Techniques (CFT, min. 100 course hours), a Certificate of Furthered Studies (CFS, min. 250 c-hrs), or the school's Diplôme de Malletier (DM, min. 1.500 c-hrs, including a Masterwork).

There is a jury-reviewed Masterpiece requirement. The P5 track process applies only to Europe and the USA. Other countries: as of 2022, unless the candidate travels to and completes the Masterpiece on the occasion of a special residence at the EdM Campus in Belgium or the Compas PARÉ France premises. The P3 is the world's very first certification in the malletier field, yet another premiere by EdM.
Path #6 (P6) The Traineeship at Ecole des Malletiers of Belgium is currently offered to no more than one person per year, and with a one-year residence if one is not already living near the Manhay - Durbuy ateliers' area or the Belgian provinces of Liège, Namur, or Luxembourg at large.
