Record, monitor and prove training attendance easily, all in one place and in line with Belgian law. No Excel, no scattered lists!

"Who took that training course again last year?"

Sound familiar?

Attendance is tracked in Excel, emails or paper lists
Last-minute changes and no-shows are hard to keep track of
Certificates and attendance aren't linked
When audits or inspections come knocking, a watertight overview is nowhere to be found
Too much manual work for HR, L&D or prevention teams

➡️ Smart Lions centralises it all in one clear, organised system.

How many training days are you legally required to provide?

From twenty employees, every full-time employee is federally entitled to at least five training days per year (this was still four days in 2023); with ten to nineteen employees, a federal minimum of one training day per year per full-time employee applies, and below ten employees federal law imposes no minimum. These are the federal minimum rules: the actual number depends on your joint committee (paritair comité), because sectoral collective agreements (cao's) may deviate from them. If an employee works part-time, the number of days is calculated pro rata. This individual training right was introduced by the law of 3 October 2022 (the 2022 labour deal, or Arbeidsdeal) and is separate from, but closely linked to, the obligation to draw up an annual training plan.If an employee does not use all of their training days in a given year, they are not lost: they carry over to the next year as training credit. That credit runs in fixed five-year periods, though — the first from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2028 — and at the end of each period every employee's balance is reset to zero collectively. Both formal training (courses and training sessions with an instructor) and informal learning (coaching, self-study, onboarding by a colleague) count, as long as they are work-related — wellbeing training also qualifies.In this guide you will read, per company size, how many days you must provide, what happens to unused days, when sectoral collective agreements deviate, and how this right relates to the training plan and the announced individual learning account.

Kmo-portefeuille for training: how it works

The kmo-portefeuille (the Flemish SME training subsidy) is a subsidy from the Flemish government through which Flemish small and medium-sized enterprises recover part of their training costs: small enterprises receive 30% support, medium-sized enterprises 20%, with an annual cap of € 7,500 per enterprise. The training must fall under one of eight future-oriented themes and be purchased from a service provider registered for the kmo-portefeuille.Since 1 February 2026 the kmo-portefeuille has been reformed, but only for the advice component: it was then limited to the cybersecurity theme. Nothing changes for training — the eight themes, the rates and the € 7,500 cap continue to apply unchanged.Do you operate in Wallonia or Brussels? Then the kmo-portefeuille does not apply to you: Wallonia works with its own system of chèques-entreprises, and in Brussels support runs via Brussel Economie en Werkgelegenheid (Brussels Economy and Employment). The rest of this article covers the Flemish kmo-portefeuille.
