Agence EBP

What Agence EBP does

Agence EBP is a French private training organization founded in 2015 in Modène, France, by three physiotherapists (François Villier, Guillaume Deville, and Flavio Bonnet). The company delivers evidence-based continuing education to healthcare professionals—primarily physiotherapists and secondarily physicians and other practitioners—through a dual-mode platform combining a proprietary e-learning portal (elearning.agence-ebp.com, available in French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese) with in-person training sessions held across French cities. Core curriculum is developed and delivered by 50+ international instructors from universities in 11 countries, with all foreign-language content translated live into French by bilingual healthcare professionals; flagship programs include the Know Pain course with Mike Stewart, the Shoulder Certification Program, the Motivational Interviewing Cursus, and the Sleep Optimization course. The company also produces AI-focused content including the Masterclass EBP and the BackOn AI assistant for running resumption, and organizes the Paris Back Summit 2026 international spine conference.

The business model is a mix of subscription-based e-learning (course access ranging from 6 months to 3 years, typically €477-€1,597), one-time in-person training (€790-€1,790), recurring 12-month coaching cohorts (€997), and conference ticket sales (€640 plus optional gala). Distribution is direct-to-professional via the company website and e-learning platform, supplemented by partnerships with French government funding bodies (DPC and FIF PL) that allow professionals to use public continuing-education funds, and by community channels (an 800+ member Discord, 53k+ social followers, podcast, and blog). Qualiopi certification (2024-2027) is held, providing regulatory legitimacy for accessing these public funding streams.

Since 2015, the company has trained 11,500+ healthcare professionals and reports an 8.4/10 customer satisfaction rating. The company is independent and founder-owned with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or acquisitions; it operates with a small core team of 6 collaborators plus roughly 30 freelancers/translators and a per-session instructor network of 50+ clinicians. International expansion is signaled by Spanish and Italian sister platforms, and forward product strategy is oriented toward AI-enabled clinical workflows and higher-priced recurring coaching offerings.

Scale indicators7 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Physiotutors: Online physiotherapy education platform offering video courses, podcasts, and resources for clinicians and students. Targets the same PT audience with self-paced digital content, though smaller and less focused on paid certification programs than Agence EBP.
• Physitrack: Physiotherapy exercise prescription and patient engagement platform used by clinicians worldwide. Adjacent to Agence EBP in serving practicing PTs, but focused on patient-facing tools rather than clinician CE; useful benchmark for clinical workflow productization.

Direct peers

• MedBridge: US-based continuing education and patient engagement platform for physical therapists and other allied health professionals, combining video courses, certification programs, and home exercise tools. Comparable in clinician CE focus and dual online/live delivery model.
• Evidence In Motion (EIM): US-based organization offering post-professional PT residency/fellowship programs, certifications, and continuing education for physical therapists. Comparable in evidence-based CE focus and in building multi-tier programs (certificates, advanced training) for practicing clinicians.
• La Clinique du Coureur: Quebec-based running injury clinic that produces training content and continuing education for healthcare professionals treating runners. Overlaps directly with Agence EBP's running/sport MSK content and shares a francophone clinical-training orientation.
• The Running Clinic: Evidence-based running injury prevention and treatment training for healthcare professionals, founded by Blaise Dubois. Directly comparable niche (running injuries for clinicians), similar French-Canadian francophone market overlap, and similar course catalog approach.
• Physio Network: Subscription-based evidence-based physiotherapy education platform serving practicing clinicians globally with research reviews and online courses. Closely comparable to Agence EBP in target audience (clinicians), content style (evidence-based synthesis), and recurring subscription model.

Broad incumbents

• WebPT: US market leader in physical therapy practice management software with an educational content arm (WebPT Members). Much larger and broader in scope; offers educational resources as part of a wider PT practice platform, not a pure-play CE provider.
• HealthStream: Large public US company providing workforce training, compliance, and education solutions to healthcare organizations. Comparable in healthcare professional training delivery but at enterprise and health-system scale rather than individual clinician CE.
• Coursera: Global online education platform with a growing healthcare and clinical specialty catalog (e.g., physical therapy, public health) from universities. Comparable in online delivery and multi-language capability, though broader, lower-touch, and not specialized in French clinician CE.
