Mutations en éducation et en formation" collection
Contemporary training and career paths are marked by increasingly complex transitions, which in turn entail sometimes laborious identity readjustments. Drawing on research conducted in Belgium, Canada, France and Switzerland, the twelve chapters in this book offer keys to understanding these paths and transitions. They pay particular attention to their effects on the construction of the identity of subjects grappling with institutional and organizational structures that channel their actions. They open up avenues of reflection and action for training and for supporting individuals in different types of transitions, be they more or less voluntary professional reconversions, entry into the job market following vocational or higher training, entry into the profession of teacher or trainer, or professional transitions arising from a migratory pathway.
This book is aimed at a wide readership interested in this theme, and more specifically at researchers who analyze these processes, as well as trainers who work with actors involved in the dynamics of change.
