Certification
Qualiopi certification, explained
The French quality certification that unlocks public funding — what it is, what the auditor checks, and how we help foreign companies pass it.
Essentials
What is the Qualiopi certification?
Qualiopi is a mandatory quality certification for any provider that wants to access public or pooled funding in France (CPF, OPCO, France Travail). It attests compliance with the National Quality Framework (RNQ).
The National Quality Framework comprises 7 criteria and 32 indicators. For each, the auditor expects tangible evidence. The certification is delivered by a body accredited by COFRAC.
The most common failure is not a lack of quality but a lack of evidence: real practices that are not documented. We turn your activity into an auditable file and run a mock audit before the real one. This applies to foreign organisations exactly as to French ones.
