Taking a Break from School

Conference Career Guidance and Transition
16, February 2027Saint-Martin-d'Hères - University Campus
A break, a gap year, a leave of absence… Taking a break from your studies is possible! But how do you go about it, and why would you want to?

What's on the agenda

  • What are the motivations, obstacles, and added value of these experiences?
  • What kinds of experiences are possible?
  • Where can I find information about doing civic service? An internship? A job? Going abroad?
  • How do I choose the right legal status for this project? How can I best structure and justify it?

Come explore and discover these possibilities, because taking a step back is also a way to discover yourself!
