His involvement in France Universités
A member of the CPU's Training and Professional Insertion Commission since 2016, he was elected to its presidency in December 2018. During these two years, he followed governmental measures structuring training and professional integration, such as the reform of the baccalaureate and those of general and professional licenses, the reform of access to health studies, the implementation of INSPE and new MEEF masters as well as the laws "Orientation and success of students" and "Freedom to choose one's professional future". He is also a member of the CNESER, president of the board of directors of the CINES and represents France Universités on the board of directors of GENCI. In December 2020, he was elected by his peers as vice-president of France Universités.
And at the General Assembly on 15 December 2022, he was elected president of France Universités, alongside two vice-presidents: Virginie Dupont, president of the Université Bretagne Sud and Dean Lewis, president of the Université de Bordeaux.
In their profession of faith as candidates, the three members of the Bureau propose "a programme to implement the orientations and proposals presented at the congress of 13 January 2022 as well as a change in the organisation of France Universités in line with these objectives".
