The BTS Comptabilité et gestion (Higher Technician Certificate in Accounting and Management) at Institut Supérieur Saint-Denis in Annonay, France is a two-year bachelor-level programme delivered in French, with a September start date. Accounting and management is a practical, applied discipline that trains students to handle the financial and administrative functions of organisations. The curriculum covers financial accounting, management accounting, payroll and social charges, taxation, business law, and the use of professional accounting software. Students learn to record financial transactions, produce periodic financial statements, prepare tax declarations, and generate management reports that support business decisions. Beyond technical bookkeeping, the programme develops analytical thinking and a broad understanding of how financial data reflects and influences business performance. Students are trained to work both within accounting firms and in the finance departments of companies across sectors ranging from retail and manufacturing to public services and professional services. This level of qualification leads to roles such as accounting technician, payroll administrator, management control assistant, financial assistant, or accounts clerk across a wide range of industries.
