    • Florian R. "I passed a CAP in Bodywork Repair, which I chose to complete with a CAP in Bodywork Painting in one year. Finally, I even decided to take a Bac Réparation des Carrosseries. All as an apprentice! I found work straight away when I finished, and today I'm a business owner with two bodywork shops."
