En ligne sur http://www.cereq.fr/content/download/16090/129720/file/Trai118.pdf; Professional and vocational courses requiring 5 years' post-secondary study are supposed to meet specific needs for competences in a given area of employment.

Is this a reason to question the increasingly vocational nature of university courses?
