Professional Training through Practice : an individual and collective dynamic
Professional training is developed through both an individual and collective dimension. This training involves more than the acquisition of specific knowledge and the development of personal resources of the individual, underscoring the individual dynamic of expressing the need for training. Professional training, due in part to its alternating character, searches a collective dimension which allows the learner contact with peers in order to acquire the culture of the profession and to construct an identity. Contact with others with whom he shares professional activity allows him to confront his various knowledges and competencies with those of the group.
