CPF

Compte Personnel de Formation

What is the CPF?

The personal training account (CPF) allows any active person, from their entry into the labour market until the date they claim their pension rights, to acquire training rights that can be used throughout their professional life.

What is the principle behind the CPF?

You retain your personal training account – called the CPF – throughout your working life. The CPF can be used to fund training. Unless you are a public servant, it is credited in euros: 500 € per year if you work at least half-time. Otherwise, the amount is proportional to your working time.


If you are self-employed, a member of a liberal profession, or a non-salaried worker (such as a collaborator spouse or artist), you have been entitled to the CPF since January 2018. To ensure your training rights are funded, you must be up to date with your professional training contributions.

What are the conditions for benefiting from the CPF?

The following people are eligible for the CPF:

  • Full-time and part-time employees.
  • Self-employed workers.
  • Seasonal workers.
  • Public and consular agents.
  • Job seekers.
  • People with disabilities hosted in an establishment or assisted employment service (ESAT).

What is the CPF out-of-pocket expense?

If your CPF rights are enough to cover the full cost of your training: you still
won’t be able to use them entirely. You will have to pay €102.23 towards the total
cost of your training.
