In the following paragraphs, the terms below have the meanings given to them:

Apprentice: any natural or legal person who enrols in a training course with the CFA.
CFA: Centre de Formation des Apprentis (apprentice training centre), Formation Intuit Lab Pro (CFA).
Learner: the natural person who takes part in the Master’s programme.
Contract or agreement: the professional training agreement concluded between the CFA and the learner. This agreement may take the form of a duly executed contract, approved by the CFA and the learner.
Inter-company training: a training course listed in the CFA’s catalogue, which brings together learners from different organisations and takes place on the premises of the training centre, on premises made available to it by any third party, and/or remotely.
In-house training: a training course designed and delivered specifically for a company, on the premises of the company, of the training centre or of any third party, and/or remotely.

2. Purpose and scope

The purpose of these CGV is to set out the conditions applicable to the sale of training services by the CFA to the apprentice who enrols in a course from its training offer. Any enrolment implies the apprentice’s unreserved acceptance of these general terms and conditions of sale, which prevail over any other document, and in particular over any general terms and conditions of purchase. No derogation from these General Terms and Conditions may be enforced against Formation Intuit Lab Pro unless it has expressly accepted it in writing.

Any contrary condition, and in particular any general or specific condition put forward by the learner, may not, except with the formal written acceptance of the CFA, prevail over these CGV, regardless of when it may have been brought to its attention.

The invalidity of a clause of the CGV does not invalidate the CGV. The temporary non-application of one or more clauses of the CGV shall not constitute a waiver of the other clauses of the CGV, which remain in effect.

The CFA reserves the right to adapt or amend its CGV unilaterally and at any time. In the event of an amendment, the CGV applicable to the Training will be those in force on the day the training contract or agreement is signed.

A copy of these CGV is appended to every training contract or agreement.

3. Enrolment and contract procedures

Any enrolment request is made via the CFA’s website, by telephone or by any other agreed means. It is followed by a discussion to check that the training matches the Learner’s needs.

Following this discussion, a training contract or agreement is sent to the learner. This document specifies in particular the title, objectives, duration, teaching methods, schedule and financial terms and, where applicable, the conditions of funding by a third-party body.

The training is deemed to be definitively ordered upon receipt of the duly signed contract or agreement, subject to the applicable statutory withdrawal periods.

4. Specific provisions for work-study programmes (Master)

Enrolment in a work-study programme without a signed contract

Enrolment in the work-study Master’s programme is possible even if no apprenticeship contract has been signed by the start date, provided that the learner is actively seeking a host company.

From the official start date of the academic year, the learner has a maximum of three (3) months to conclude an apprenticeship contract with a host company.

During this period, the school supports the learner in their search for a work-study placement, without this constituting an obligation of result.

No apprenticeship contract at the end of the three-month period

At the end of the three (3) month period following the start date, and if no apprenticeship contract has been signed, the learner must notify their choice in writing from the following three options:

Option 1 – Withdrawal from the programme at no cost

The learner may choose to leave the school permanently, without owing any tuition fees or compensation, including for the training followed during the work-study search period. The departure is then formalised in writing and gives rise to no invoicing.

Option 2 – Temporary switch to initial training with a later switch to work-study

The learner may choose to continue the programme under initial training status, pending the subsequent signature of an apprenticeship contract.

In this case: tuition fees are due pro rata temporis, calculated on the basis of the number of weeks of classes actually followed in initial training up to the date the apprenticeship contract is signed; from the signature of the apprenticeship contract, the training becomes free of charge again for the learner and falls under the work-study scheme.

Option 3 – Permanent switch to initial training

The learner may also choose to switch permanently to initial training for the whole academic year.

In this case: the full initial training fees are due, and no refund may be claimed if an apprenticeship contract is not subsequently signed.

Formalising the learner’s choice

The choice made by the learner must be:

Expressed in writing, signed and sent to the school within a deadline set by the school. If no reply is received within the set deadline, the school reserves the right to consider that the learner has opted to continue in initial training, with the corresponding fees applied.

No retroactive effect

No financial retroactivity may be applied after the learner has expressed their choice, unless mandatory legal provisions require otherwise.

5. Training delivery

The teaching arrangements (on site, remote, pace, schedule) are defined in the contractual documents.

The CFA remains free to choose its teaching methods and tools, its trainers and its assessment methods, in compliance with the reference frameworks and regulatory obligations.

Learners must comply with the internal regulations, the health and safety rules and any teaching instructions.

The CFA reserves the right to exclude any participant whose behaviour would disrupt the smooth running of the training.

At the end of the training, a certificate of completion or any required regulatory document is issued.

6. Enrolment fees and financial terms

Enrolment in the training is subject to payment of the training fees for the academic year concerned.

Under an apprenticeship contract established between the host company, the CFA and the work-study student, the cost of the training is €10,800. This amount may be partly or fully covered by the host company’s sector OPCO.
For initial training with personal funding, the training fees amount to a total of €9,100 including VAT for Master-level programmes.

Tuition fees may be paid using one of the following methods:

Payment in a single instalment (date to be set at the start of the academic year)
Payment in three instalments, as follows:
50%
25%
25%

Payments may be made by cheque or bank transfer, according to the terms specified by the school.

Any late payment may lead to suspension of access to the training, without prejudice to any proceedings or penalties provided for by the regulations in force.

Training fees remain due in full, unless legal or contractual provisions state otherwise, in particular in the event of early termination of the training under the conditions set out in this agreement and the applicable regulations.

7. Funding by a third-party body

Where the training is funded by an OPCO or a third-party body, it is the CFA’s responsibility to carry out the necessary procedures and to ensure that this funding is valid.

In the event of partial funding, the balance remains payable by the apprentice’s host company. If the funding body refuses or fails to pay, the apprentice’s host company remains liable for all sums due.

8. Subcontracting

The CFA is authorised to subcontract all or part of the performance of the services covered by this contract.

9. Digital course materials

As part of an environmental commitment, all documentation relating to the training is provided in digital format.

10. Intellectual property and copyright

The CFA retains ownership of, and all intellectual property rights in, the techniques, methodologies, training materials and know-how, including without limitation the databases, software and computer programs, processes, formulas, tools, models, algorithms and products that it implements, develops or uses for the purposes of its training. Paper and/or digital training materials are protected by national and international copyright and related-rights provisions. Under these conditions, the learner undertakes not to reproduce, summarise, modify, alter or redistribute the materials, which excludes any transfer, resale, rental, exchange or making available to third parties by any means. The learner undertakes not to publish or disclose all or part of the training materials in the public domain, in particular in the press or at public conferences, without the prior written consent of the CFA.

The learner is liable under articles L.122-4 and L.335-2 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code in the event of unauthorised assignment or communication of the content. The use and reproduction of a learner’s company name, trade name or trademarks as a commercial reference, on any promotional communication medium, including in particular its website, shall be subject to the learner’s prior express authorisation.

11. Personal data protection (GDPR)

In the course of delivering its training, the CFA collects personal data. This data may be shared with group companies and possibly with third-party companies (service providers, subcontractors, etc.) strictly for the purposes of the training.

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC).

In delivering its training, the CFA undertakes to take all appropriate technical and organisational measures to preserve the security and confidentiality of personal data and, in particular, to prevent it from being distorted, damaged, lost, misappropriated, corrupted, disclosed, transmitted and/or communicated to unauthorised persons.

Consequently, the CFA undertakes to:

Process personal data only as strictly required for the training;
Keep personal data for three years, or for a longer period in order to comply with legal obligations, resolve any disputes and enforce contractual commitments;
In the event of subcontracting, the CFA guarantees that its subcontractors comply with all of its commitments regarding the security and protection of personal data.

12. Confidentiality

It is expressly agreed that any information disclosed by the CFA under or in connection with the training must be considered confidential (hereinafter “Information”) and may not be communicated to third parties or used for any purpose other than the training without the prior written consent of the CFA. Ownership of all Information disclosed by the CFA, whatever its nature, medium or means of communication, under or in connection with the training, belongs exclusively to the CFA.

Consequently, the learner undertakes to keep the Information in a safe place and to apply to it at least the same protective measures as those it usually applies to its own information. The learner guarantees that learners will comply with these confidentiality and safekeeping provisions.

The disclosure of information by the CFA may in no case be interpreted as expressly or implicitly conferring any right whatsoever (under a licence or by any other means) over the Information or other rights attached to intellectual and industrial property, literary and artistic property (copyright), trademarks or trade secrets. Payment of the price does not transfer any intellectual property rights in the Information.
