For over 40 years the SFV has been providing state-certified education in the field of vacuum technologies and their applications, from industrial vacuum to ultravacuum. The courses combine theory and practice, and are given by recognised professionals from the industrial or university spheres.

The state-approved training provided is wide-ranging, and is aimed both at beginners and specialists. Its purpose is to ensure that every participant progresses in his own field.  The programme can be adapted to the needs of each company or user, and new training courses are offered each year.  For some training courses the SFV is in partnership with the University of Orsay and the CNAM (National School for Arts and Crafts) / CACEMI (Centre for the development of the studies of materials).

The SFV also decentralizes some courses to Blois, Bordeaux, Nancy and Nantes in order to be closer to local and regional needs and skills.
