As a nonprofit organization, CEFAM is one of the few 100% independent institutions in France.
CEFAM reinvests its resources in teaching and student support. By allocating all or part of the remaining balance of your apprenticeship tax to CEFAM, your company directly contributes to projects that enhance students’ education, broaden their international perspective, and better prepare them for the professional world.
By supporting CEFAM, you are helping to train bilingual and multicultural professionals who are capable of thriving in international settings and are ready to contribute immediately.
CEFAM offers employment-focused training that includes up to 18 months of internships, meetings with companies, conferences, and a strong global alumni network.
The apprenticeship tax supports our innovative educational projects and the development of our training programs, such as the launch in 2025 of our new program in International Relations.
The apprenticeship tax consists of a main portion and a balance. It is this remaining portion of the apprenticeship tax that liable employers can allocate to accredited institutions of their choice via the SOLTéAplatform, managed by the Caisse des Dépôts. In 2026, the balance corresponds to a rate of 0.09% of the total payroll for the employers in question.
This applies to all employers liable for the balance of the apprenticeship tax, that is, employers with at least one establishment in France, employing at least one employee, and subject to income tax on industrial and commercial profits (BIC) or corporate income tax, subject to the exemptions and special cases provided for by the regulations.
The company reports the balance through its April DSN and pays it to Urssaf or the MSA. It then selects, via SOLTéA, the facility or facilities to which it wishes to allocate all or part of this balance. The payment is therefore not made directly to CEFAM.
Companies subject to the Alsace-Moselle regime do not have a “balance” portion of the apprenticeship tax to allocate to SOLTéA.
