Mastering Qualiopi certification: A complete guide for businesses with Didask

Qualiopi certification has become a crucial point of reference for companies and training organizations wishing to align themselves with quality standards in vocational training. At Didask, a company born out of cognitive science research, we understand the importance of aligning with these standards and offer an evidence-based approach to achieve this. Our LMS platform integrates educational intelligence, perfectly adapted to help companies in their process of obtaining Qualiopi certification.

Understanding Qualiopi certification

The Qualiopi certification, resulting from the reform of vocational training, is a certification that guarantees the quality of training processes. It is based on precise and demanding criteria, aimed at ensuring quality training for learners. A Qualiopi certified training organization therefore guarantees a certain level of quality that allows companies that use its services to have their training courses financed through public financing mechanisms.

Since January 1, 2022, training organizations that are not certified according to the national quality standard can no longer have their training courses financed by public actors. For many structures, certification is therefore essential to guarantee their training activity.

How Didask makes the certification process easier

Didask, thanks to its LMS platform focused on the learner, offers effective tools to align training courses with Qualiopi criteria.

These criteria include:

1. Conditions for informing the public about training courses: Ensure transparent and detailed communication on the courses offered, including objectives, expected results, and access procedures.
2. The precise identification of the objectives of the training courses: Clearly define the educational objectives and adapt them to the needs of the beneficiary audiences.
3. The adequacy of pedagogical, technical and supervisory resources: Establish appropriate resources and teaching materials, as well as qualified supervision to ensure the quality of training.
4. The conditions for the reception, support, monitoring and evaluation of training courses: Create an environment conducive to learning and implement effective monitoring and evaluation methods.
5. Adapting benefits to beneficiaries: Customize training courses to meet the specific needs of each learner.
6. Taking into account the assessments made by the beneficiaries: Integrate learner feedback and evaluations to continuously improve training.

Thanks to our technology, based on cognitive sciences, we help structure training programs that meet Qualiopi's requirements, while promoting effective and sustainable learning. For more information on reducing design time with Didask, check out our article on design time in e-learning.

In addition to these features, Didask is distinguished by its Smart analytics advanced, recognized as the most accurate on the market. These tools allow precise monitoring at two essential levels:

1. At the level of each training content: Didask smart analytics provide detailed insights into the effectiveness of each training module, allowing trainers to understand exactly which aspects are working well and which require adjustments.
2. At the level of each learner: This individualized approach makes it possible to monitor the progress and areas of difficulty of each learner, thus offering a complete view of the effectiveness of the training. As well as the management of evaluations and certifications. What is required to get certified.

In addition, the Smart analytics by Didask integrate algorithmic recommendation functionalities. For example, if a high percentage of learners answer a question incorrectly in a short period of time, the algorithm detects this pattern and suggests rephrasing the question to improve clarity and instructional effectiveness. These functionalities are particularly relevant in the context of Qualiopi, where the effectiveness of training and the adaptation to learners' needs are key criteria. Thanks to these tools, training organizations can not only ensure compliance with Qualiopi standards, but also continuously improve the quality of their educational offer.

5. Continuous improvement: Thanks to the analysis of training data as well as the support of our educational engineers, companies and training organizations can continuously refine their programs to meet the changing needs of learners and the evolving requirements of Qualiopi.

Qualiopi: what are the expected costs?

Preparing for Qualiopi certification involves significant costs, divided into different categories:

1. The initial audit: This audit is the first comprehensive review of the organization's training practices and is the first comprehensive assessment to determine whether the organization meets Qualiopi criteria. The costs for this audit can vary widely, but a price range is generally between €1,500 and €2,500. This range may increase for larger organizations or those with more complex training needs.
2. The surveillance audit: Conducted 14 to 22 months after the initial audit, this audit ensures continued compliance with Qualiopi standards. The costs for the surveillance audit are generally slightly lower than those for the initial audit, often between €1,000 and €2,000.

In addition to these audits, consideration must be given to the time and resources required to respond to potential non-conformities, which may result in additional costs.

Other Associated Costs:

• Support in the Qualiopi approach: The costs for external support, including consultancy services, training, and mock audits, vary widely. They can start at €2,000 and go up depending on the depth and extent of the services required.
• Human cost: The time spent by internal staff in preparing for certification is also a cost factor to consider.
