Steiner Johane

The Greta du Velay is a public training organisation, managed under the supervision of Lycée Lafayette and gathering 21 educational institutions under the wing of the Ministry of Education (secondary schools, high schools and colleges). Around 70% of the activity consists in preparing qualified workers for companies and supporting their continuous learning processes (analysis of needs, delivery of training, evaluation and follow up). Courses are organised in response to the local and regional needs and to the demand of funders through call for projects. A variety of sectors are concerned such as hospitality, cooking, industry (automation tools, maintenance, leatherwork...) and tertiary sectors (management, languages, computing...). Courses can target the preparation of national diplomas or only the development of competences.
The other domain of activity consists in supporting the vocational inclusion of target groups such as young unemployed, early school leavers, low skilled adults, migrants, through the development of basic skills (key competences, transversal competences, digital literacy...), orientation and practices in companies, so that they are able to choose a career and become employed.
