Application Dates and financing

The total cost of the training program and the CAPOP certification examination amounts to €25,000 (excl. VAT).

Just as it is essential to undergo professional training to legitimize your role as an Operating Partner and effectively support business growth, it is equally important to carefully plan how you will finance your CAPOP certification.

What return on investment can I expect from this certification?

The CAPOP certification provides measurable ROI for Alumni:

• Terms & Conditions Requirement (CGV): A growth strategy assignment for a CEO must be presented before the jury; on average, 1 out of 2 presentations converts into a first client contract for Alumni.
• Executive Sponsor: Each cohort is sponsored by a recognized business leader, facilitating networking opportunities and high-level introductions.
• Alumni Platform: A dedicated mission platform, accessible from 2026 to all Alumni who wish to participate.

BNP Paribas supports the Operating Partners Academy by offering an exclusive preferential rate to future certified Operating Partners within the CAPOP certification framework, through a loan that may extend up to 5 years, with no administrative fees.
