Disability policy

The FORPRO-PACA network informs you and supports you in your project, whether you are a company wishing to take on a disabled trainee or apprentice or a future disabled trainee/apprentice interested in training.

The FORPRO-PACA network, committed to Corporate Social Responsibility, is affirming its desire to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities.

To this end, it has embarked on a vast programme of raising awareness among its teams and is strengthening its partnerships with qualified structures.

We undertake to:

• Provide you with all the information you need, upstream of the course;
• Design a suitable course;
• Assist you with the steps you need to take to benefit from support;
• Assuring links with the structures likely to facilitate entry into training (funding, material and human support, etc.);
• Coordinating the implementation of the programme with the teaching teams.

Our aim is to put in place all the necessary resources to enable you to take full advantage of your training and succeed in your career project.

To support you, each structure has appointed a disability referent, a privileged contact for individuals and companies. The contact details of the Disability Referrers appear on each training course description sheet.

His key words are: support, adapted tools, listening and kindness!

L'Itinéraire des Talents is an experimental 18-month project, launched in 2022 by the GIP FIPAN, aimed at supporting 24 young people (aged 16-25) from priority neighbourhoods and suffering from learning disabilities (dyslexia, dyspraxia, etc.). Its aim was to facilitate their professional integration through personalised support. The programme included an individual diagnosis, tailored digital tools, work-linked training and follow-up towards employment. Among the innovative solutions, it included Ryan Dubois's ergonomic KEYDYS keyboards, adapted for young dyspraxics, and the Scanning Pen, a digital pen making reading easier for dyslexics.

More than 300 professionals and partners such as Pôle emploi, Cap emploi, Microsoft France and specialist associations supported this initiative. The experiment, judged to be promising, is now continuing in some lycées, enabling other young people to benefit from these tools and support methods.
