BAYARD ACADEMY
Transfer skills.
Open up possibilities.
Make healthcare and technology support roles a pathway to social and professional inclusion and reintegration in France and Africa.


Skills shared, the ability to act.
BAYARD ACADEMY embodies our ambition to make practical expertise accessible and useful. We want to connect people seeking their first experience, a career change or a return to work with the concrete needs of healthcare teams and communities.
Alongside doctors and allied health professionals, care pathways also rely on reception, organisation, coordination, logistics and properly functioning equipment. Valuing these roles means recognising their contribution to smoother care and more reliable services.
USEFUL ROLES, PRACTICAL SKILLS
Support teams.
Make solutions work.
Our skills-transfer approach centres on six complementary families of roles, adapted to individual profiles, partners and local needs.
Reception and medical administration
Welcome people attentively, organise appointments, prepare administrative records and direct enquiries. These skills make services easier to access, streamline teamwork and give patients someone who can support them.
Support for assisted teleconsultations
Prepare the space and equipment, help establish connections, support the use of tools and liaise with the healthcare professional. The aim is to make technology usable in practice, while keeping technical assistance distinct from medical decisions.
Dental assistance and practice organisation
Develop skills in organisation, equipment preparation, hygiene and supporting dental teams. Pathways must take account of the qualifications and responsibilities required for each role in the country of practice.
Coordination and support for allied health teams
Facilitate the exchange of useful information, organise interventions and maintain continuity between centres, partners and the home. Listening, administrative rigour and confidentiality are central to these support roles.
Healthcare logistics and digital support
Prepare kits, track stocks and equipment, help people use software and resolve everyday difficulties. These essential roles allow healthcare professionals to focus on their work.
Maintenance and technical assistance
Train people in installation, functional checks, authorised preventive maintenance and first-level diagnostics for connected devices. Documenting incidents, understanding intervention limits and referring issues to authorised technicians or manufacturers are part of this expertise.
INCLUSION & REINTEGRATION
A pathway to lasting progress.
Young people seeking career direction, people distant from employment, adults changing careers and professionals seeking progression have different needs, but everyone should be able to build a coherent path forward.
01
Identify existing skills and overcome barriers
Start with each person’s experience, transferable skills, digital proficiency and career goals. Guidance and the involvement of inclusion partners should help address barriers to entering a pathway.
02
Learn through practical situations
Combine relevant knowledge with practical scenarios: welcoming a patient, preparing a teleconsultation station, organising a schedule or handling a technical incident. Repetition, trainer feedback and step-by-step progress make learning meaningful.
03
Rebuild confidence and professional readiness
Inclusion goes beyond technical skills. Communication, teamwork, punctuality, responsibility and confidentiality help people regain confidence and find their place within an organisation.
04
Prepare the transition into work
Make acquired skills clear, prepare applications and encourage meetings with organisations and partners. The aim is to connect training with real needs, without promising automatic employment at the end of a pathway.
FRANCE & AFRICA
Transfer practical expertise.
Strengthen local autonomy.
In France
Bring training pathways closer to the needs of centres, practices and local services. The project combines skills development, return to work and support for digital tools, alongside training and inclusion stakeholders.
In Africa
Build pathways with local partners that suit local languages, equipment and realities. Training users, lead contacts and local technical teams should support ownership of solutions, the sharing of practices and reduced dependence on outside assistance.
Technology only has value if it can be used and maintained.
A connected case, a teleconsultation station or software is not enough on its own. Its usefulness depends on people who can prepare it, use it correctly, identify problems and request the right level of assistance. Skills transfer aims to build that autonomy, with traceability and respect for manufacturers’ instructions.
In Morocco, cooperation with IGATE provides a foundation for developing training in healthcare professions. Our ambition is to progressively build skills networks between France and Africa, with adapted content and locally rooted partners.
Pathways, prerequisites, duration and arrangements will be specified for each project. Regulated roles and technical work requiring authorisation remain subject to applicable requirements; this presentation does not announce a diploma or certification.
