French term or phrase: bijoutière duale
Hi there,

I´m translating a paragraph about the education and early career path of a jeweller. I have no idea what "bijoutière duale" means, and the only Ghit I get for this phrase is from the French article I am currently translating, which makes me think it might be a typo..or perhaps I´m missing something?

Note: the company presenting this award is a luxury watchmaker AND fine jeweller, so I´m wondering if maybe "duale" is related to that...or maybe I´m reading into this too much!

Any ideas or help much appreciated!

Here´s the context:

"Le prix du meilleur joaillier a été décerné à Mlle. Muriel Kouevi. Après un apprentissage de dessinatrice d'intérieur au CFP AA, et une maturité professionnelle artistique entre 2002 et 2005, elle s’est dirigée vers l’Ecole Supérieure des Beaux-Arts avant d’entrer en apprentissage chez M. Alain Hirt en tant qu’apprentie bijoutière duale"

Explanation:
"Duale" refers to the apprenticeship, not to "bijoutière".

"... permet aux élèves plein temps et aux apprentis duals d'accéder à la Haute école d'art et de design. ... Bijouterie Bijouterie (dual) Gainier (dual) Graveur (dual) ... Dessin option architecture (dual) Atelier de sérigraphie ..."

"Formation par apprentissage de type dual ...
C’est un système de formation permettant d’établir un lien entre l’apprentissage traditionnel et le système formel, dont le principe consiste à renforcer les connaissances pratiques de l’apprenti, acquises dans un atelier, avec des connaissances complémentaires (théoriques et pratiques) dans un centre de formation professionnelle.
1. Elle s’adresse hors du circuit formel de formation ayant un pré requis (un niveau minimum d’alphabétisation) et étant en situation de travail dans un atelier/entreprise artisanale au moins une année.
2. Elle se passe dans deux lieux (l’atelier et le centre de formation) d’où la dualité.
3. L’accès à la formation est conditionné à la réussite de l’apprenant au test d’entrée."

Of course, the French phrasing could have been clearer, e.g. apprenti duale en bijouterie.

I think that there might not be a US term for "sandwich course". Perhaps combined academic studies and internship or something similar?
