C2RP

What C2RP does

C2RP (Centre Régional de Ressources pour les Professionnels), legally structured as a Groupement d'Intérêt Public (GIP), is the designated Carif-Oref operator for the Hauts-de-France region in France. Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Lille, the organization is co-governed by the French State (through DREETS Hauts-de-France) and the Région Hauts-de-France under a CPER 2021-2027 contract framework, with its role inscribed in the French Labor Code since 2021. It serves as the neutral regional interface for employment, training, and orientation policies, providing data, tools, and resources to career counselors, training providers, employment advisors (France Travail, Missions Locales), apprenticeship centers (CFAs), regional decision-makers, and indirectly to job seekers, QPV residents, and people with disabilities.

The core product platform is a suite of interconnected web-based tools organized around three functional pillars: (1) training qualification, anchored by OFeli (regional online training catalog), the Répertoire des formations, and the Annuaire des organismes; (2) observation and diagnostics, delivered through a Data Observatory, territorial diagnostic dashboards, regional employment-training indicators, and cartography tools; and (3) information and orientation, led by Cléor (occupation/trade information tool), the Répertoire des certifications VAE, and directories of reception facilities. These are complemented by content services including C2Podcast, the C2@ctu and InfoHebdo newsletters, RSS feeds, the daily Selection Veille portal, a YouTube library of approximately 100 videos, webinars, and the annual Résonance regional event. The architecture integrates with national portals (alternance, orientation, France Travail systems) via the Offre Info and Certif Info inter-regional databases.

C2RP's business model is non-commercial: all platforms, tools, and content are provided free of charge as part of its public service mandate. Revenue consists entirely of public funding from its two co-governors — DREETS and the Région Hauts-de-France — with a 2025 budget of €3,180,000 supporting a team of approximately 40 employees. The organization monetizes no transactions, sells no subscriptions, and operates no pricing model; rather, its value is delivered through mandated coordination (CPRDFOP 2022-2028 with 80+ regional partners), member-driven governance via the national Réseau des Carif-Oref (RCO), and content-led engagement across digital, event, and community channels.

Product overview

C2RP operates a unified platform of interconnected digital tools and content services for employment, training, and orientation professionals in the Hauts-de-France region. The core offering centers on three main functional areas: (1) qualification of training offerings through OFeli (training catalog) and associated organism/treatment directories; (2) observation and diagnostics through territorial dashboards and statistical tools; and (3) information/orientation through Cléor (profession information) and various directories. These are complemented by content services including C2Podcast, newsletters (C2@ctu, InfoHebdo), RSS feeds, and a professional resources library featuring webinaire replays and reference dossiers.
