The framework

A training obligation written into law

The French law of 9 December 2016 on transparency, the fight against corruption and the modernization of economic life, known as the Sapin 2 law, requires large companies to set up a program to prevent corruption and influence peddling.

It applies to companies with at least 500 employees and revenue above 100 million euros, as well as to groups that reach these thresholds. Their executives are personally required to deploy the program.

The program rests on eight measures. One of them requires training for the managers and employees most exposed. This module helps you meet it, and is just as useful for smaller organizations that want to raise awareness among their sales and purchasing teams, or even all their employees.

The subcontractors of these companies are concerned too. A company subject to the law must assess its suppliers and intermediaries: it can require their teams to be trained, for example in a framework agreement or a supplier listing. Training your employees, with certificates as proof, lets you meet that requirement and supports your selection.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need the Learning Academy to take this training?
No. The Sapin 2 training can be ordered on its own, with no subscription, for a few people or for entire teams. It is also included in the Learning Academy catalog, alongside more than 100 other modules, if you want a complete awareness program. Tell us what you need in the form and we will send you a proposal.
Does the training lead to a certification?
It leads to a downloadable certificate of completion, which serves as proof of training for the employee and proof of implementation for the organization. It is not a certification.
Can we deploy it in our own LMS?
Yes. The module can be delivered in SCORM format so it can be added to your learning platform, where you track results with your usual tools.
How do employees access the training?
On the BlueSecure platform, you can add the people to train by Excel/CSV import or by syncing with a directory such as AD. Each person receives an email invitation and completes the module at their own pace. You track progress from the dashboard.
Our organization is below the thresholds of the law. Is this module useful?
Yes. The thresholds determine who must set up the full program, but the prohibition of corruption and influence peddling applies to everyone. Above all, a company subject to the law must assess its third parties: it can require its suppliers and subcontractors to train their teams, for example in a framework agreement or a supplier listing. The module lets you meet that requirement, with certificates as proof, and gives your sales and purchasing teams the reflexes to recognize a risky situation.
