It is estimated that 90% of French people have already considered changing jobs following the health crisis. In 2021, 49% of them initiated or carried out a professional retraining according to a BVA survey.
There are different motivations for retraining: We want to flourish in our work and… we want to avoid burnout. We can have a health problem that makes us unfit to hold a job. Difficulties finding work around your home, if you are forced to move to accompany your spouse.
Advice from our expert: do not quit in a hurry. It is often easier to follow a training course when you are still employed than when you are looking for a job.
Transition Pro Paca accompanies employees who want to train to change jobs. It offers the Professional Transition Project (PTP) which makes it possible to follow certifying training to change trades or professions.
This training can be carried out on or outside working hours. Salary and educational costs can be covered under certain conditions. Learn more about Transition Pro Paca ici.

Consult your personal training account (CPF)
Since its launch in 2015, the Personal Training Account (CPF) succeeded the Individual Right to Training (DIF). The new law Law for the Freedom to choose his professional future allows each citizen to have direct control over his CPF which is monetized. That is to say that you have euros that you can use to follow training and only for that. If you have not initiated it, you must go to this site to activate your rights to training and above all be able to use the kitty. https://www.moncompteactivite.gouv.fr
Beware of CPF flight scams! Do not give a code remotely, or do not open your account remotely (SMS, telephone, internet) at the request of structures. Initiatives are taken to support you in the activation of your CPF account by recognized organizations: Pôle emploi, Local missions, Afpa, Greta, etc.
Thus the Afpa Villages of the South Region are organizing an Open Day on Thursday, September 22, 2022. Workshops are organized to support the public in opening their CPF Account.
