Les prestataires de formation sont tenus de transmettre annuellement, un bilan pédagogique et financier (BPF) relatif à leur activité en matière de formation professionnelle au titre du dernier exercice comptable clos, accompagné des documents comptables correspondants.
A cette fin, le formulaire et sa notice 2014 sont désormais en ligne sur www.declarationof.travail.gouv.fr. Les organismes peuvent ainsi se connecter sur ce site pour télésaisir leur BPF.
Attention : cette saisie en ligne ne les dispense pas d’envoyer avant le 30 avril 2014, au Service régional de contrôle (Direccte), un exemplaire papier du BPF, daté, signé et accompagné du bilan comptable, du compte de résultat et de l’annexe du dernier exercice clos.
A défaut d'envoi dans ce délai, la déclaration d’activité devient caduque.
En l'absence d'activité de formation professionnelle au titre du dernier exercice comptable clos, un BPF doit être retourné, daté et signé, avec la mention « NEANT ».

By Leah EichlerI. My husband and I recently undertook the unenviable task of decluttering our storage room, an area of the house I normally treat as a no-man’s land since it’s cold, has spiders and is littered with junk. After throwing out the antique golf clubs, broken baby furniture and aging university textbooks, the act of discarding useless materials started to feel addictive and liberating. Then we stumbled upon several large, framed diplomas. My husband flippantly suggested that we should roll one up and smoke it. More...

By Melissa Brazier. Students learn to present themselves and develop great communication skills.
He's only 26, but Derrick Fung is already CEO and co-founder of a startup company that won Billboard's FutureSound Innovators Showcase and landed him on Profit magazine's top 20 entrepreneurs under 30 and Forbes magazine's “30 under 30” list for music.

By Vanessa Milne. Since 2008 74,000 people have participated in an Ontario program that funds post-secondary education.

She’d been a billing analyst for Rogers Communications for about six years, but the training she had received “was strictly Rogers, their software, their data,” she says, so it wasn’t transferable.

A University of Windsor professor is accusing the school of accepting international students because they're "cash cows."

By Charles Kenny. As Washington wonders how to encourage democratic reform in North Korea, Burma, and Iran and how to shore up new democracies in the Middle East and Africa, it seems clear what not to do: invasion. On measures of civil and political rights, countries we have invaded (Afghanistan, Iraq) are roughly equal with those we haven’t (Iran and Burma, respectively). As it turns out, soft power may be far more effective. In particular, educating future leaders here in the U.S. could be one of the most powerful and cost-effective ways to spread democracy that we have. In 2008, about one in five of the 3.3 million foreign students enrolled worldwide were studying in the U.S., and while that’s still a tiny share of the planet’s 7 billion population, foreign-educated students have an outsize impact on their home countries.
