SNETAA-FO

What SNETAA-FO does

SNETAA-FO (Syndicat national de l'enseignement technique action autonome – Force Ouvrière) is a French trade union founded in 1948 that represents professional high school teachers (Professeurs de Lycée Professionnel, or PLP) across France. The union is the self-described first and leading syndicate for PLP teachers and operates under the larger Force Ouvrière (FO) confederation, with Pascal VIVIER serving as Secretary General. Its core service is representation and defense of the material, moral, and career interests of PLP teachers, including support during trainee assignments (affectations des stagiaires), internal mobility (mutations), pedagogical resources, and advocacy for vocational education under school status.

The organization runs a lean technology stack: a WordPress-hosted website (www.snetaa.org), an EMSI-managed online membership registration portal (SNETAA PRO), a podcast ('La Revue de Presse des PLP') distributed via Spotify and major platforms, and digital publications including AP Magazine (Issue N°628 in July 2026), guides, and letters. Its distribution network spans 35 académies across metropolitan France and overseas territories, with departmental S2 representatives in every French department, providing grassroots-level member support. The union employs 9 staff, headquartered at Saint-Cloud, with a listed Paris office for data protection matters.

SNETAA-FO's revenue model is straightforward subscription-based membership dues. The standard annual fee is 46.20 EUR (including 3.85 EUR VAT), with reduced rates available for first-time members, trainee teachers (stagiaires), and AED/AESH staff. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, consistent with French non-profit trade union reporting norms. Member services are augmented through partner relationships with Autonome Solidarité (insurance), Crédit Mutuel Enseignants (banking), FNECFP-FO (Catholic education federation), and Education Internationale (international technical education).

Broad incumbents

• CFDT: Major French labor confederation whose SGEN-CFDT education federation competes with SNETAA-FO. Comparable as a French union confederation with broader cross-sector scope but analogous member-funded, representative model.
• UNSA: Cross-sector union confederation whose UNSA Éducation federation competes with SNETAA-FO. Comparable as a French union confederation with a similar member-funded operating model.

• UNSA Éducation: UNSA's education federation representing teachers and education staff across categories including PLP. Competes directly with SNETAA-FO for mandates in French professional elections.

• FSU (Fédération Syndicale Unitaire): Major French teacher union federation that competes with SNETAA-FO's FO bloc in professional elections across primary, secondary, and vocational categories. Directly comparable in mission, membership model, and statutory representation role.

• SNEP-FSU: Syndicat National des Enseignements de Second degré, the FSU-affiliated union for secondary teachers that absorbed SNUEP-FSU (the PLP union under FSU). Directly competes with SNETAA-FO for the same PLP teacher constituency via a rival confederation.
