Work-study program

Work-study programs offer a strategic opportunity to gain training while being immersed in the professional world.

A true bridge to employment, it helps students acquire practical skills that can be directly applied in the workplace.


In continuing education, there are two programs that provide access to work-study programs, depending on your status:

  1. The Professional Training Contract
