Who is our GEO training course aimed at?
Designed to anticipate changes in search technology, our GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) training course is aimed at marketing and communications directors, digital strategy managers and brand managers who wish to ensure their brand’s visibility on new AI-powered search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini).

Professional training that can be funded by the OPCO
What is the OPCO and how can I find out about yours?
OPérateurs de COmpétences (OPCOs) are state-approved bodies responsible for funding apprenticeships and supporting companies in the vocational training of their employees.
There are currently 11 OPCOs, each dedicated to a particular sector of activity. There are three ways you can find out which skills operator you belong to. If your company is already a member of an OPCO, go to the cfadock website. You can find your OPCO using your SIRET. Not yet a member of your OPCO? Find your OPCO using the table provided by the Ministry of Labour. You will need your Collective Agreement Identifier (IDCC). If your company is not a member and you do not apply a collective agreement, consult the list of skills operators to identify the OPCO that corresponds to your sector of activity.
How can the OPCO fund your training?
There are several ways of financing your training through your skills operator. Whatever the case, you need to join your company's OPCO in order to receive funding.
