What Oo2 Formations & Consulting does

Oo2 Formations & Consulting is a Paris-headquartered professional training organization founded in 2011 that delivers certification preparation and continuing education across IT, cybersecurity, cloud computing, project management, supply chain, HR, and ISO standards. Its core product is a catalogue of more than 850 courses delivered through four modalities: in-person classroom (Paris and Brussels training centers), live virtual classroom with cloud-stored replays, self-paced e-learning, and a weekly Saturday program, plus fully customized intra-enterprise engagements for organizations with 5+ trainees. The platform layer is a web-based learning management system with synchronous video conferencing, asynchronous online modules, and online assessment tools that feed internationally recognized exams administered by 50+ authorized certification body partners including PECB, PeopleCert (ITIL/PRINCE2), ISACA, ISC2, PMI, Cisco, Microsoft, AWS, CompTIA, ASCM, Scrum.org, SAFe, and The Open Group.

The business model mixes unit-priced inter-company open enrollment (per-seat pricing in EUR/USD/FCFA), tailored intra-company contracts with multi-year cadence, recurring e-learning/subscription revenue, and exam-fee pass-through. Pricing is quote-based for enterprise work and CPF-eligible (French personal training account) for selected certifications such as ISO 27001, ITIL Foundation, PRINCE2, CAPM, and various cybersecurity credentials. Go-to-market is sales-led via multi-country phone lines and web quote requests, augmented by content marketing, SEO, and social channels, with OPCO public-funding facilitation and accessibility partnerships (AGEFIPH, FIPHFP, CAP EMPLOI, MDPH) widening the addressable buyer pool. The company reports 2,700 trainees trained in 2025, 92% participant satisfaction, and an 82% exam pass rate, and holds QUALIOPI (renewed May 14, 2024 without non-conformities) and Datadocké certifications required to access French public training funds.

Operational scale is small: the firm reports 1-10 employees, operates three physical offices (Paris HQ, Brussels regional HQ, Abidjan), and maintains a sales line in Senegal. There is no disclosed revenue, no external funding history, no parent company, and no M&A activity, making Oo2 a privately held, founder-led training reseller whose economic engine is catalogue breadth, certification-body authorizations, and pan-francophone geographic reach rather than proprietary technology.
