Question 17746 — vocational training and apprenticeship

Summary

Mr. Hubert Brigand draws the attention of the Minister of Labor and Solidarity to the consequences of the reductions in credits announced for the training of job seekers in Burgundy-Franche-Comté. Indeed, the region has already been faced, for its 2026 regional training program, with a reduction of 25 million euros in its resources, which would have led to the cancellation of nearly 90 training actions. She now reports a new threat for 2027, with the announced elimination of the State's financial participation in regional skills investment pacts, which would represent, according to regional estimates, an additional loss of 41.5 million euros. However, this situation is of great concern to those involved in professional training and businesses. It risks reducing the number of pathways allowing job seekers to acquire a qualification and meet the needs of sectors which nevertheless encounter recruitment difficulties. The consequences could be particularly significant in rural areas. Removing nearby training can be an insurmountable obstacle for someone without transportation. An offer located several tens of kilometers away is not necessarily an offer truly accessible. This drop in public orders also weakens locally established training organizations. The example of Onlineformapro, which has undertaken a major restructuring with a job protection plan providing for 40 job cuts out of 94 employees, illustrates the very concrete consequences of this reduction in activity. Beyond the jobs concerned, it is an expertise and a territorial network built over the years which risk disappearing. Vocational training for job seekers nevertheless constitutes an investment that is directly useful to the economy. It makes it easier to return to work, respond to the skills needs of businesses and combat recruitment difficulties. In rural areas, it also contributes to maintaining young people and workers and contributes to fighting against desertification. Also, he asks what measures the Government intends to take to preserve the resources devoted to training job seekers in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, guarantee the maintenance of a local offer in rural areas and provide the regions with sufficient visibility on their funding. He also asks him if he intends to maintain the financial participation of the State in the pacts regional investment in skills in order to avoid a further reduction in the training offer from 2027.
