What Formation-Secourisme.fr does

Formation-Secourisme.fr is a privately-held French professional training organization (organisme de formation) headquartered at 42 rue Le Peletier in Paris's 9th arrondissement, operating since around 2001 with 11–50 employees. It is habilitated by the INRS (Institut National de Recherche et de Sécurité) to deliver workplace first-aid training and by the Sécurité Civile to deliver team-rescue certifications. The company sells certified first-aid and rescue training to French enterprises that must staff workplaces with trained first-aid personnel under French labor code Article R.4224-15, and secondarily to individual members of the general public.

The core product is a five-program certified training portfolio: SST (14h, valid 24 months), Recyclage MAC SST (7h refresher), PSC1 (7h, general public foundational first aid), PSE1 (35h, intermediate team rescue), and PSE2 (28h, advanced team rescue). Training is delivered through two channels: intra-company on-site sessions anywhere in France for groups of 4–10 employees, and inter-company open sessions at the Paris training center. The company adapts scenarios to client-specific industrial risks (BTP/construction, industry, hospitality, airports, research facilities) and differentiates on instructor quality, with over 85% of SST trainers being active firefighters.

Revenue is generated through quote-based per-participant pricing across all five programs, with multi-year contracts and group discounts available. The go-to-market is sales-led B2B: enterprise HR, QHSE, and operations buyers initiate contact through the website quote form or a dedicated phone line and receive a personalized proposal within 24 hours. Marketing is concentrated on the website, supported by city-level SEO landing pages spanning Île-de-France and over a dozen French metropolitan areas, plus social media presence on Facebook, X, and LinkedIn. No external funding has been raised and no parent company, M&A activity, or disclosed revenue are present in the source data.

Broad incumbents

• Bureau Veritas: Bureau Veritas is a global testing, inspection, and certification giant with a substantial French training division covering HSE and safety compliance. It is a broad incumbent competing for enterprise compliance-training budgets that overlap with Formation-Secourisme.fr's SST offering.
• APAVE: APAVE is a major French risk-management and safety services group that delivers HSE/SST training as part of a wider inspection and certification portfolio. It serves the same regulatory-driven enterprise buyer but at significantly greater scale.
• AFNOR Compétences: AFNOR Compétences is the training arm of France's national standards body and offers HSE, quality, and compliance continuing-education programs. It is comparable to Formation-Secourisme.fr's certification-driven training model but anchored in a much broader standards portfolio.
• SOCOTEC: SOCOTEC is a French TIC (testing, inspection, certification) leader that bundles HSE/SST training into broader risk-management engagements with enterprise clients. Like Bureau Veritas, it competes for the same compliance-training wallet but at a larger, more diversified scale.

Direct peers

• Orsys: Orsys is a French professional training company delivering a wide catalog of inter- and intra-enterprise courses, including HSE and safety topics. It competes with Formation-Secourisme.fr for B2B compliance training budgets and shares the same intra/inter delivery model.
• AFTRAL: AFTRAL is one of France's leading professional training organizations, with deep offerings in transport, logistics, and workplace safety (HSE/SST). It overlaps directly with Formation-Secourisme.fr's INRS-habilitated safety training portfolio and targets the same B2B enterprise compliance market.
• Cegos: Cegos is France's largest corporate training provider, offering B2B programs across management, compliance, and workplace safety. It is a direct peer in the enterprise compliance/CE training space, though its portfolio is much broader than Formation-Secourisme.fr's.
• EFE (L'École Française des Entreprises): EFE is a longstanding French B2B training provider offering inter and intra-enterprise programs across HR, management, and HSE topics. It directly competes for enterprise compliance-training mandates alongside Formation-Secourisme.fr.
