Representation and support for the profession
By its status as an organization mandated by the State, the CTCPA has a role of representation of the food industry with the French and European public authorities, by participation in committees. We also have a role of technological and regulatory monitoring and dissemination of information to the whole sector. Finally, we provide technical support in the event of a crisis, whether it is individual to a company or more general, linked to a profession.
Strengthen the attractiveness of the industry
Our mission also includes strengthening the attractiveness of the heat treatment professions, and more generally of the professions in the agri-food industry.
We are working to revisit training paths by modernizing the tools in order to accommodate new skill profiles.
