What CAMPUS VERT D'AZUR does

Campus Vert d'Azur is a French public agricultural educational institution classified as an Établissement Public Local d'Enseignement et de Formation Professionnelle Agricoles (EPLEFPA), headquartered in Antibes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, with reported founding in 1891 and 59 employees. It operates two physical sites: the Lycée (1285 avenue Jules Grec) delivering full-time initial vocational training, and the CFPPA (88 chemin des Maures) handling apprenticeship and adult continuing education. The institution delivers programs from the 3ème level through Baccalauréat and BTS/Bac+2, with articulation to higher education including engineering schools, landscape architecture schools (ENSP), and Université Côte d'Azur. Its curriculum is organized across five green-sector specializations: Paysage (Landscape), Végétal (Plant Production), Équestre (Equestrian), Sciences & Environnement, and Service à la personne (SAPAT). Supporting assets include E-VERT d'Azur (online learning platform), Jardins verts d'Azur (organic farm exploitation offering produce baskets), and Radio Green Azur (student-operated radio station).

The institution hosts the only public-sector CPGE ATS Paysage preparatory class in France for entrance competitions to elite landscape architecture schools. Its technology stack is standard educational infrastructure (Wix website, Google Analytics/Ad tools, Jimdo-based e-learning site) with no proprietary platform or AI capabilities; online delivery is handled through the external e-vertdazur.jimdosite.com site.

The business model is public-sector funding rather than tuition-based. Primary funding flows from Région Sud Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur and the European Social Fund+ (FSE+) under the 2021-2027 FEDER-FSE+-FTJ program (€154,064,780 total regional project financing, €77,032,390 EU contribution, running 1 August 2022 to 31 December 2029), supplemented by the Ministry of Agriculture (MAASA) oversight and apprenticeship tax (taxe d'apprentissage) contributions from enterprise partners. Go-to-market is event-driven (open days, orientation evenings, mini-stage programs) with enrollment via the national AFFELNET (secondary) and PARCOURSUP (higher education) procedures. Customer segments span secondary students, apprentices and adult learners, and partner enterprises in landscape, horticulture, equine, and environmental services sectors.

Direct peers

• Campus des Sicaudières (EPLEFPA Deux-Sèvres): EPLEFPA in western France delivering parallel landscape, agricultural, and BTSa programs under the same national framework. Highly comparable on diploma mix and apprenticeship/adult training structure (CFPPA equivalent).
• EPLEFPA Montpellier (Hérault): Public agricultural vocational campus in nearby Hérault operating under the same MAASA EPLEFPA framework with comparable landscape, viticulture, and environmental programs. Closest functional peer given shared regional and program profile.
• Campus Nature Provence: EPLEFPA neighbor in the PACA region offering overlapping agricultural and environmental vocational programs. Directly comparable in mission, funding structure, and MAASA governance — including formal partnership on veterinary auxiliary training cited in the data.
• CFPPA de Hyères: Neighboring PACA adult vocational training center (CFPPA) under MAASA offering overlapping landscape, horticulture, and continuing-education programs. Closest direct comparator for the adult/apprentice segment served by Campus Vert d'Azur's CFPPA in Antibes.

Broad incumbents

• Bordeaux Sciences Agro: Public higher-education institution under MAASA delivering engineering-level agricultural training that BTSa graduates from EPLEFPA schools feed into. Comparable as the upstream academic destination for Campus Vert d'Azur graduates pursuing higher education.
• Maison Familiale Rurale (MFR): Alternative private network of agricultural and rural vocational training centers across France with overlapping CAPa, Bac Pro, and continuing-education offerings. Comparable as a parallel vocational education model competing for the same apprentice and retraining market.

Emerging players

• ENSP Versailles - École Nationale Supérieure du Paysage: National landscape architecture school and a direct downstream partner of Campus Vert d'Azur's CPGE ATS Paysage. Comparable because it operates at the higher end of the same professional landscape training pathway, even though ENSP is at degree-granting level.
• Université Côte d'Azur: Regional university partner offering Licence Pro pathways that Campus Vert d'Azur BTS graduates feed into (landscape management, water engineering, biodiversity). Comparable on educational pathway design and the PACA regional footprint.
