Who we are

The Institut Collectif de l'IA (ICIA) is a French non-profit association dedicated to the collective challenges of artificial intelligence.

Our conviction is simple: the AI transition will be neither purely technical nor purely economic. It is also cultural, educational, social and democratic.

That is why we develop initiatives enabling individuals and organizations to understand the ongoing transformations and take part in them.

MentivisOS ICIA is the ICIA's artificial intelligence acculturation platform, free for life and open to everyone. It starts from your profile and goals to build a personalized, adaptive learning path that evolves with your progress. Accessible online from any device, it lets you learn AI with AI, wherever you are.

ICIA programs are for everyone concerned by artificial intelligence. ICIA Pour Tous targets the general public, regardless of age, level or situation. ICIA Territoires supports local authorities, associations and local stakeholders. ICIA Education addresses the educational world. ICIA Travail et Compétences concerns working professionals, businesses and organizations. Each program meets a distinct need, with the same standard of accessibility.

ICIA is a non-profit association under French law (loi 1901). Its activities rely on memberships, partnerships, donations and institutional support. Acculturation resources for the general public, including the MentivisOS ICIA platform, are free, because understanding AI is a matter of collective interest, not a commercial logic.

Formats are mixed. Some activities take place in person, notably at the Campus Cyber.IA Euromed in Marseille, ICIA\'s headquarters, and in partner territories. General public acculturation is accessible online anytime, via the MentivisOS ICIA platform, free for life, allowing you to learn wherever you are, at your own pace.

Several paths exist. To start learning now, the MentivisOS ICIA platform is available free online. To get involved in the association, you can become a member, participate in workshops and events, or contribute based on your profile. Local authorities and organizations can request dedicated programs.

ICIA relies on rigorous methods and tools selected for their educational quality. For its general public acculturation, ICIA selected MentivisOS after evaluating available solutions, a platform that builds a personalized learning path based on each person's profile and goals. The programs are designed to be accessible, adaptive and respectful of users' data.

Born in Marseille. Built for France.

The Institut Collectif de l'IA is a national initiative, initially anchored in Marseille, in the same location as Mariusia.

Because AI is already transforming skills, education, work and access to information, its challenges cannot be reserved for a few specialized players or a few major cities.

ICIA champions a distributed approach, anchored in territories, connected to field realities and open to all public, educational, economic and associative actors.
