The instrument funds only apprenticeship.

There is one type of apprenticeship contract in Luxembourg that is included in three different vocational training programmes that lead to different qualifications:
- the vocational capacity certificate (CCP - Certificat de Capacité Professionnelle) at level 2 EQF
- the vocational aptitude diploma (DAP - Diplôme d'Aptitude Professionnelle) at level 3 EQF
- the technician's diploma (DT - diplôme de technicien) at level 4 on the EQF.
Training towards the CCP is always done under an apprenticeship contract.
Training towards the DAP can be done under an apprenticeship contract OR an internship contract (contrat de stage).
Training towards the DT is mostly organised under internship contracts but can be done through an apprenticeship contract.
