Alternance

English to French Other Education / Pedagogy Alternance/Sponsorship
Let me make clarify the concept of Alternance: a kind of sponsorship whereby the company grants financial support paying the school fees and small allowance, plus is committed to welcome the student as an intern as well. I’ll be glad to know how it translates in English.

sandwich courses

a college course consisting of periods of study with periods of work between them so that students get practical experience

May also be known as a degree apprenticeship.

A degree apprenticeship is a relatively new type of apprenticeship, which leads to a full university degree - but without the tuition fees.
Peer comment(s):

agree Didier Fourcot : apprenticeship could be closer to the French concept: http://www.onisep.fr/Cap-vers-l-emploi/Alternance/Foire-aux-...

Thanks.
agree katsy : wrt what Didier says, I think 'apprenticeship' or 'sandwich course' would depend on type and level of study. Asker will perhaps have to choose both options - or will have enough context to choose.

Thanks. I totally agree about level, which is why I suggested both options.
neutral Germaine : Jamais vu ou entendu cette expression, mais je suis certaine que la langue française a mieux à offrir!
