OBS

Système selon lequel les employeurs permettent à leurs employés de suivre des cours dans des collèges techniques pour de courtes périodes d'étude à plein temps, qui durent généralement quelques semaines par année, sans perte de rémunération. La période de temps réservée à ce genre d'études peut être légèrement supérieure à celle que l'on consacre aux cours à temps partiel, et en certains cas, un peu plus courte que celle consacrée à l'enseignement alterné.
