Revenue model

1. Professional Training Services: AJC Formation generates revenue by delivering paid professional training courses to enterprises and individuals. Revenue is earned through course fees charged per participant or per program. The company offers short-form courses (1-10 days), long cycles (10+ days), and career-track curricula (57 days). Pricing varies widely by course (e.g., 990 € HT to 22,450 € HT depending on duration and specialization).
2. Government-Funded Training (POE, CPF, PTP, PDC, Actions Collectives): Revenue is partially co-funded through French government financing mechanisms: POE (Préparation Opérationnelle à l'Emploi), CPF (Compte Personnel de Formation), PTP (Projet de Transition Professionnelle), Plan de Développement des Compétences (for companies under 50 employees), and OPCO Atlas collective actions. These represent indirect revenue streams via third-party payer arrangements.
