What is a corporate academy?

A corporate academy (in-house school, campus or corporate university) is a training structure belonging to the company, which trains for its critical occupations using its own frameworks. It can offer RNCP or RS certified paths, as a certifier or an authorized provider, and train apprentices if the company sets up a corporate CFA. Mentivis designs and launches the academy in five steps, from scoping to the first cohort, with a costed proposal within 48 hours.

You are in one of these situations

  • You cannot find the skills your occupations need on the market.
  • You want to retain staff with certified paths rather than one-off courses.
  • You hire apprentices and want to train them with your own methods.
  • Your group has several sites and each trains in its own way.

Frequently asked questions

Corporate academy: what we are asked most

Short answers to the questions asked before starting the project.

To secure critical skills that cannot be found on the market, retain staff with certified paths, and turn training into a performance lever rather than a cost centre.

A corporate school trains for one occupation or field. A campus pools several paths for a group. A corporate university structures a certified offer across the group, with its own governance, frameworks and funding.

OPCOs fund apprenticeship and professionalization contracts and, for companies with fewer than 50 employees, the skills development plan. The CPF can fund RNCP or RS certified paths. A company with a CFA training its own apprentices can deduct some expenses from its apprenticeship tax.

Only if the academy trains apprentices. A corporate CFA follows the rules of any CFA (Qualiopi, 14 legal missions), without having to mention apprenticeship in statutes.

4 to 9 months depending on scope: frameworks, certification if targeted, tools, recruiting trainers and the first cohort.

The cost depends on the number of occupations, the certification targeted and whether a CFA is created. You receive a costed proposal within 48 hours of a first conversation.
