Learning "throughout and across life" (Carré, 2020) is essential for individuals to facilitate transitions from one activity to another, from one work environment to another, and from one profession to another.In France, various programs are available to support and secure these transitions, as individuals are increasingly made responsible for managing their own professional trajectories, particularly since the enactment of Law No.2018-771 of September 5, 2018, which promotes the freedom to choose one's professional future.Professional Development Consulting (abbreviated by CEP) supports individuals in constructing theirprofessional projects; Accreditation of Prior Learning (abbreviated by VAE) enables the recognition of skills developed in the workplace to enhance employability; and training programs aim at developing skills necessary for employment.While the “idéel” objectives (Albero, 2011) of each of these programs may appear distinct in theory, in practice, their functions often overlap. For instance, the VAE process not only validates experience but also contributes to professional project development and skill enhancement. This observation leads us to distinguish between the intended purposes of these programs and the ways individuals instrumentalize them for their own benefit.Our research in education and training sciences has focused on these three programs. We propose to examine the tensions between individual and societal stakes that shape them. To do so, we employ the notion of space, conceptualized through three dimensions: instrumental, intimate, and social. These dimensions reveal two underlying dynamics throughout the guidance process: an epistemic dynamic, involving the construction of knowledge through processes of problematization, conceptualization, and formalization; a developmental dynamic, shaped by processes of normalization, awareness, and emancipation (Hoffert, 2024).Through these dynamics, the notion of space highlights the interplay between the structured space designed for beneficiaries and the self-constructed space that individuals develop as they navigate their transitions. This perspective underscores the learning and developmental processes that emerge from these constructions.Analyzing transitions, spaces, and learning within employment-oriented programs allows for a deeperunderstanding of their challenges and limitations. As mechanisms for adapting to transformations in the labor market, these programs shape both professional and academic pathways. Furthermore, by engaging with beneficiaries' lived experiences, they create opportunities for individuals to appropriate both the program and their own professional journey.Lire moins >
