From OIA Group to Invea

OIA Group is a leader in capacity-building in the Comoros, with activities taking place across numerous countries in Africa. Established in 2016, the center is dedicated to providing top-tier training, research, and consultancy services for both the public and private sectors in order to encourage human development and create a safe and sustainable future. With a large client base including major companies (e.g. Societe Generale, Rio Tinto, CMA CGM), international organizations, and governments.

We have facilitated over 5,240 training hours, trained 17,400 people, and worked with over 365 experts and consultants since 2019.

Continuing to provide in-person training:

  • The restrictions on the number of people allowed to attend and social distancing guidelines significantly reduced the number of people who could attend training sessions.
  • The costs of providing safe and reliable in-person training services had an impact on our budget, causing us to raise our prices.
    The use of PPE added additional costs.

Organizing international missions:

  • Travel restrictions imposed by governments severely limited the ability of consultants and experts to travel.
  • Additional health and safety protocols had to be implemented due to the threat of COVID-19. Visa requirements and processing times were affected, making international missions more difficult and longer in duration.

Users-love-us Don’t take it from us.

OIA Group has supported us in training our bank managers since 2017 on professional and organizational effectiveness, an intense program, full of methods, tips and sharing. The sessions were very well structured, the trainer very pedagogical and the explanations very clear. I was particularly interested in the practical work using concrete examples tailored to the needs of each participant. Unforgettable!
