Summary of "Handicap et Formation : construire et actionner une veille de manière efficace"
Purpose
- Explain how training organizations can build and run an effective monitoring (veille) system specifically to address disability (handicap) in training — not only as indicator 26 but across several monitoring indicators.
- Share practical resources, examples and a workflow to collect evidence and demonstrate continuous improvement for audits (notably Qualiopi / “Caliopi”).
Key concepts and takeaways
- Disability includes invisible conditions (learning disabilities, neurodivergence, temporary disabilities, fatigue from illness, etc.), not only visible or physical impairments.
- Monitoring (veille) should be structured, intentional, shared and used to trigger concrete actions — auditors look for what you did with the monitoring, not just that you collected information.
- Collect concrete evidence: reports, before/after screenshots, email exchanges, updated program versions, meeting minutes, event/webinar reports, proof of implemented adjustments.
Four monitoring categories / indicators (each should include disability-related tracking)
- Legal and regulatory monitoring (indicator 23): laws, decrees, funding rules, accessibility directives.
- Professional / sector monitoring (indicator 24): sector practices and evolution of professional tools/skills.
- Pedagogical & technological innovation (indicator 25): new learning methods, tools (including AI), accessibility of digital resources.
- Disability-specific monitoring (indicator 26): internal organisation (disability liaison, partner network, events, awareness).
Methodology — step-by-step
- Clarify scope and frequency
- Decide cadence and time commitment (e.g., 1 hour every 3 weeks vs many micro-tasks).
- Limit scope to what is relevant (don’t track apprenticeship systems if you don’t offer them).
- Define roles and collaborators
- Appoint a disability liaison/reference person and make the contact visible (website, program documents, convocation).
- Distribute monitoring responsibilities across team members by interest/expertise (legal, pedagogy/tech, disability).
- Identify authoritative sources and experts
- Subscribe to sector newsletters and follow named specialists and bodies.
- Choose a small set of reliable sources to avoid overload.
- Instrument your intake process (pre-training)
- Automate a pre-training questionnaire asking: “Do you have a disability or require specific training arrangements?”
- Keep proof the questionnaire was sent; a lack of response is still evidence that you asked.
- Anticipate and prepare accommodations
- Define typical accommodations (extra time for exams, break schedules, readable formats).
- Decide what proof is required for certain accommodations (e.g., RQTH for extra certification time) and document accommodations offered without formal recognition.
- Monitor across indicators (examples)
- Legal/regulatory: track the EU accessibility directive → research impact, prepare recommendations, produce implementation plan and timeline; evidence = report + team brief + timeline.
- Pedagogical/technological: adopt RGAA checks, use Scribe to simplify texts, provide captions and screen-reader friendly materials; evidence = updated materials, accessibility audits.
- Disability-specific: appoint liaison, map partner network (RHF regional contacts, CAP emploi, MDPH), attend SEEPH / DuoDay / referent-network events; evidence = web updates, partner emails, event reports.
- Capture, structure and store evidence
- For each item, save a short note summarizing relevance, planned/taken actions, and attach supporting documents (screenshots, updated program, emails).
- Maintain a status/action list (to-do, in progress, done) and a central “cadoc” or summary table for audits.
- Use a tool to centralize and share monitoring
- Use a content-aggregator / monitoring tool to receive summaries, annotate and tag items by indicator, upload sources and attach evidence, share and assign tasks, and filter by indicator for audits.
- Turn monitoring into actions & continuous improvement
- From each relevant item, define at least one tangible follow-up (update a program, run an awareness session, change a digital format).
- Track and document implementation — quality over quantity.
Concrete actions and evidence examples for audits
- Updated website or program page with liaison contact (before/after screenshots).
- Report or internal memo summarizing implications of a new directive and an implementation timetable.
- Adapted materials using the FAL (easy-to-read) method or simplified texts from Scribe.
- Email exchange with an RHF regional contact or CAP emploi confirming support options.
- Internal training / webinar attendance report and distribution of the report internally.
- Documentation of accommodations provided (e.g., extra exam time) with justification where required.
Practical tips and clarifications
- Certificates of mere attendance are weak evidence; auditors want to see what was done with the information (reports, actions, updated resources).
-
Inclusive wording suggestion (use in invites/programs and forms):
“If you have a disability or require specific training arrangements…”
-
Be proactive: don’t wait for learners to declare. Make accommodations visible and include the question in pre-training forms.
- Small adjustments (breaks, timing, readable slides) can make a big difference.
- If your organisation is small or resource-constrained, choose a realistic cadence and a tight scope — better to do fewer actions well.
- Monitoring items often apply to multiple indicators — tag them accordingly.
Tools and resources mentioned

- Premium: unlimited cadoc items, add external sources, set monitoring team, calls for tenders feed.
- Pricing example (webinar): ~€39 excl. tax/month or €390 excl. tax/year.
- Accessibility & pedagogy tools/methods:
- RGAA (referred to as RG2A in transcript) — digital accessibility checks.
- Scribe — text simplification for learners with learning disabilities.
- Screen readers and subtitling software.
- FAL / facile à lire et à comprendre (easy-to-read/easy-to-understand).
- Key organisations, networks and events:
- GFIP / FIP PHFP (guides/news/studies), OPCO Atlas, CAP emploi, MDPH, RHF network.
- Module Pro — free disability training modules.
- SEEPH — European Week for the Employment of People with Disabilities (mid-November).
- DuoDay — inclusion event (paired workday during SEEPH).
- OF Connect community — community for training organisations (registration requires Qualiopi/Caliopi or in process).
- Digiform (magazine) and other Digiformat/Digifor family resources.
Examples of legal/regulatory and pedagogical monitoring to implement
- Track the EU accessibility directive → produce internal report + implementation roadmap for digital materials.
- Apply FAL to key learner-facing documents → produce adapted versions + evidence of team review.
- Implement RGAA checks on the website and adjust color/contrast for colorblind learners.
- Integrate Scribe outputs for learner handouts to support people with learning disabilities.
- Add an explicit accessibility contact on program pages and convocation emails.
Evidence collection checklist (recommended)
- Pre-training questionnaire record and any follow-ups.
- Email exchanges with partners/experts.
- Before/after screenshots of web or program updates.
- Internal reports summarizing events/webinars and actions taken.
- Uploaded updated program versions and session plans.
- Task list status updates and cadoc summary for audits.
