The law ‘for the freedom to choose one’s professional future’, enacted in France on 5 September 2018, has profoundly reformed the vocational training and apprenticeship system in the country. It brought about major changes at all levels: governance, funding, job-insertion support schemes, apprenticeship, employees upskilling and reskilling pathways. Its primary objective was to invest substantially in training and skills to empower individuals to build their own career path and to protect the most vulnerable. In order to achieve this, it provided a new, more inclusive definition of training action, which now includes all ‘educational pathways leading to a professional objective’, associated with massive investment through the Skills Investment Plan (PIC), which represents an essential financial lever for providing additional resources to the common law schemes that are currently in force in the territories, as well as for promoting innovation.
