WORK EXPERIENCE
|
The students have to accomplish a period of work
experience with the aim of ensuring a practical initiation into and contact
with the professional world. The evaluation of the ensuing report is
included in the deliberations of the 3rd year.
The reglementation with regard to the period of work placement is
presented in the student's guide on work experience, available
at the secretary's office for work placement. The students are strongly
recommended to get informed about the organisation of these
apprenticeships as early in the year as possible and they need to be
formally registered at the work placement office.
