A first with a complete program to become My Renov' Accompanist

In June 2023, the Government announced that it wanted to accelerate, from 1 January 2024, global energy renovations and thus reform MaPrimeRénov', the flagship system for aid in energy renovation. From 2024, households will have to be accompanied by a certified professional to be able to obtain aid to finance comprehensive and efficient renovation. This desire to strengthen support for all households is consolidated with the Rénov' Accompanist status, which is now open to new public and private players. Historical operators, architects and design offices are now eligible for approval.

From the start of the 2023 school year, Hellio Académie will therefore offer architects and design offices training to become My Renovation Coach. In fact, they can now apply for approval to support households in their work projects. With more than 30 hours of training, participants will be able to benefit from a complete education: challenges of the system, skills required to support individuals, knowledge of aid systems and setting up a financing plan. The program also includes personalized follow-up (“coaching”) to support participants in acquiring knowledge, mastering practical cases, as well as compiling the certification application file.

For Laura Déjeans, responsible for the training offer and quality at Hellio Académie: “We develop each training course by taking care to study the needs and specificities of each audience. We make sure to offer them the educational methods and content that best meet their challenges. »
