Is it possible to follow a work-study program at EFAP?
For certain specializations, our students complete their fourth and/or fifth year of study as a work-study program, as part of an apprenticeship or professionalization contract. They alternate one week of classes with three weeks in the company, combining theory and practice.
By choosing to offer a work-study program from the fourth year onwards, we give our students the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge during three years of initial training, before plunging into the professional world. These three years are crucial in enabling them to gain maturity and build their network through internships.
We're convinced that the feeling of belonging to a school, class spirit, educational events and dynamic campus life play an essential role in students' personal and professional development. These seminal and memorable experiences play a major role in the construction of future career paths, and make these three years an essential foundation before calmly considering the possibility of continuing one's studies in a work-study program.
