🛡️ CPF / Caisse des Dépôts compliance: attendance evidence and IP traceability

Written by Benjamin Sitbon

🛡️ Why this page?

If you deliver courses that are eligible for CPF funding, the Caisse des Dépôts (CDC) may ask you, at any time, for detailed evidence of each learner's attendance and of the reality of the course they followed. EdBuild AI automatically collects all of this evidence for you, and lets you export it in just a few clicks.


📋 The 7 categories of evidence expected by the CDC

Category

How EdBuild AI covers it

Learner identity

Named account with a verified email address

Attendance (date, duration)

Timestamp for every session and every activity

Actual activity

Tracking of the time spent per activity + inactivity detection

Instructional

List of completed activities + scores on multiple-choice and single-choice quizzes

Learner support

Trainer-side monitoring: progress and messages

Certification

Signed PDF course completion certificate

Administrative filings

CSV export of all the data for your filings


🌐 IP traceability: strong proof of attendance

For every significant action taken by the learner (login, activity completion, quiz submission, etc.), EdBuild AI records:

  • The IP address from which the action was performed

  • The precise timestamp of the action

  • The activity concerned

This traceability serves as strong proof of attendance in the event of an audit: it makes it possible to certify that the learner was genuinely active from an identifiable device.

⚠️ The collection of IP addresses is explicitly stated in your privacy policy and in the PDF certificates issued to the learner (audit reference).


📥 Exporting the evidence

To provide a complete file to the CDC:

  1. Open the course concerned

  2. Click Learner monitoring → Export

  3. Download the CSV containing, for each learner: time spent per activity, login dates, IP addresses, scores and completion status

  4. Also download the PDF certificates (attendance + course completion) for each learner concerned

💡 You can also generate a ZIP containing all the certificates for a group in a single operation (see the article on certificates).


🔒 GDPR and learners' rights

  • The data collected (time spent, IP addresses, scores) is retained for the statutory period required by CPF regulations

  • Learners can request to access, rectify or erase their data through the standard GDPR procedure

  • The IP addresses collected are never shared with third parties for commercial purposes
