The university jury is a system that enables people who are unable to follow a traditional university course to sit examinations to obtain a diploma. The jury is an alternative to traditional studies, making it possible to reconcile professional and social life with studies. To be eligible to appear before this panel, candidates must demonstrate that they are unable to attend regular courses because of :

• Professional obligations: People working full-time or with working hours that are incompatible with course timetables may be eligible.
• Medical reasons: Individuals with chronic or temporary health problems that prevent them from attending face-to-face classes may also be eligible.

There is a similar system in Flanders called ‘examencontract’.
