Since 2016, IMPGT has gradually introduced Work-linked training in some of its courses.
The Work-linked defines a rhythm of study and a mode of transmission. It is characterized by a succession of periods of acquisition of knowledge: at the IMPGT and in the field, in a reception structure. Itis a real gateway to employment and professional integration by allowing students to obtain a diploma, while training for a job in immersion in the life and culture of the company/administration.
The Work-linked training at the IMPGT is deployed in different forms, which respond to the same objective, that of increasing the student's skills by combining work in a company/administration and theoretical training:
- apprenticeship contract
- professionalisation contract
- training contract
- internship agreement
Advantages of work-linked training
