FRANCE: Training pathways for company creators


The training package aims to provide all necessary information to make it possible to create or take over a craft business in the best conditions. The training pathway is modular, adaptable to individual needs, includes assistance and counselling and is possible to achieve either in e-learning or face to face training. 76% of the company creation supported by the skilled craft chambre are still developing 3 years after their start.


Responsible organisation

CMA France for national coordination and regional skilled craft chambers delivering the training pathways






What problem or issue has the innovative practice aimed to tackle?
