In 2007, Epitech opened new campuses in Casablanca, Dalian, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Nantes, Strasbourg and Toulouse. Since January 2008, the degree delivered has been recognized by the Commission nationale de la certification professionnelle,[8] as level 1.[12] In 2008, the campuses of Nice, Montpellier, Nancy, Marseille and Rennes were opened. Since 2009, the school has been recognized by the French State.[4]

New campuses abroad

Partnership

EPITECH is a partner of the Zup de Co association to create the Web@cademie, a 2-year training completely free for students without the French Baccalaureate and with a strong motivation in computer science.[14] This course has the goal to give a job of software developer for young people who has stopped the regular studies.[15] They are trained by EPITECH teachers at Le Kremlin-Bicêtre[16] and at Lyon.[17]
