Crisis and new beginnings for CNERP
In 1970, CNER merged with Association nationale des centres régionaux de productivité and became CNERP.
In 1974, CNERP was forced to close down due to financial hardship. It reopened a year later thanks to a subsidy from the Home Office, with a new general delegate, Anne-France Braquehais, who stayed until her retirement in 2011.
