Frequently asked questions

FAQ — CSE / SSCT approval

+Can a non-approved provider train CSE members?

Not for SSCT or economic training: the Labour Code reserves these for approved organisations. Other courses aimed at elected members remain unrestricted.

+National or regional approval: what is the difference?

The national list is set by ministerial order; regional lists are set by the regional prefect after DREETS review. Both confer the right to deliver these courses.

+Who pays for these courses?

SSCT training is paid for by the employer; economic training is financed by the CSE's operating budget.
