Article L2145-2 of the French Labour Code

The training of employees called upon to exercise trade union responsibilities, in particular within economic and social bodies, and of members of a trade union organisation called upon to intervene on behalf of employees may be provided :

1° Either by specialised centres directly attached to representative trade union organisations;

2° or by institutes within universities.

However, organisations whose specialisation, in whole or in part, is provided in agreement with trade union organisations may participate in the training of employees called upon to exercise trade union responsibilities and of members of a trade union organisation called upon to intervene on behalf of employees. In order to benefit from the provisions of article L. 2145-3, these bodies must have received approval from the Minister responsible for labour.
