With content and durations tailored to each participant, these workshops are intended for photographers, visual artists, performing arts professionals, and others who may be eligible for professional training, as well as for individuals wishing to broaden the range of printing techniques available for their artistic projects.
Sessions are also run in primary schools, secondary schools, and sixth-form/high schools, usually in collaboration with art centres.

PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CIP
Laurent Lafolie and the Collège International de Photographie (CIP) have decided to establish a partnership based on exchange and collaboration around the principles of passing on photographic expertise. The training offered by the studio is fully aligned with the values of the CIP, one of whose core missions is to stand alongside artist-authors and to support research and creation in the field of fine art photography.

The Paris Training Venue | | FUNDING AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Training for Artist-Authors and Performing Arts Professionals — AFDAS
The AFDAS training fund (OPCO) enables artist-authors — photographers, visual artists and others — registered with Urssaf Limousin, as well as performing arts professionals, to receive, subject to conditions, full funding for their professional training along with the associated travel and accommodation costs. Funding applications, including the training programme and our quotation, must be sent to AFDAS no later than one month before the start of the workshop.
Funding through Other OPCOs
Jobseekers and people with professional statuses other than that of author may also, subject to certain conditions, have their training funded by France Travail or other OPCOs (AGEFICE, FAFCEA, FIFPL, etc.). Please contact the studio for further details.
One-to-One Training
For bespoke one-to-one training, the teaching and financial arrangements are determined during one or more discussions with the trainee, by email and/or telephone. To match the trainee's expectations as closely as possible, this exchange covers in particular the content of the training, the technique taught and its variations in relation to the trainee's artistic project, the aims of the workshop, the location where it will take place, its duration, its scheduling and its cost.
ACCESSIBILITY
We do everything we can to welcome people with disabilities. If this applies to you, please let us know so that we can adapt to your needs and consider possible accommodations together.
