work experience placement


Explanation:
I will ignore the words "certifie avoir eu en" which are surely to be found in any fre/eng dictionary.

Assuming, in the absence of meaningful context, that the target readership is UK-based (or equivalent), then the usual jargon for 'stage' is 'work experience placement', as in the following webrefs:

certify that XX undertook a traineeship


Explanation:
or substitute "training period" for "traineeship". Two alternatives which are internationally viable.

I agree with internship for the US and work placement for the UK but if the text is aimed at neither, or both, then these terms might be more appropriate.

Compulsory training period as part of a student's studies
Applications

The Council General Secretariat also offers unpaid traineeships to young third, fourth or fifth year students of a higher‑education establishment or university whose programme of studies requires such a period of training to be undertaken.

On second thoughts, if there is no time period specified then it might be better to use the present perfect: XX has undertaken
