Baccalaureate has not the same meaning in France and outside France, though I agree at daylight, it might be a college degree rather than a technical Baccalaureate, hence the quote marks

'1TS' is follwed in time by a '2TS' as if it is the title of a year of study.
Elsewhere, I see 'T' referring to various years in study at a lycee for a Baccalureat Technologique.
