A decree dated June 6, 2019 details the content of the national quality reference framework (RNQ), which will serve as a foundation for vocational training players to build their quality approach and aim for the certification required by January1, 2021. Those who choose to limit themselves to this standard will be able to apply for Qualiopi certification, for which AFNOR Certification will be one of the distributors. It appears on the menu of the Official Journal of June 8, 2019. Long-awaited by professional training players, who are required by law to commit to a quality approach and prove it, Decree no. 2019-565 of June 6, 2019 gives substance to the national reference framework listing 7 criteria and 32 quality indicators. This will provide training organizations, apprentice training centers and other corporate universities with a framework on which to build their quality approach, in continuous improvement mode. Certification bodies will be able to audit them on this basis, once they have obtained their accreditation, with a view to issuing the required certification on January1, 2021 (this has been the case since September 20, 2019 for AFNOR Certification).
