Abstract

Alors même que le discours des entreprises valorise les compétences des individus pour en faire un élément important de sa culture, celui-ci semble se heurter à une organisation du travail qui poursuit son processus de segmentation des formes d'usage de la force de travail. Dans ce contexte, il apparaît que le système éducatif, qu'il s'agisse de la formation professionnelle initiale ou continue, participe de ce mouvement de segmentation de différentes manières : si, dès les années 1950-60, les réformes Berthoin et Fouchet marquent le début d'un mouvement de stratification des savoirs dispensés, plus actuellement, les réformes entreprises par les différents ministres de l'Education Nationale (bac. pro., alternance…) n'ont abouti qu'à un renforcement de ce mouvement, alors même que les recherches les plus récentes menées dans le domaine de la formation professionnelle continue suggèrent l'échec de leur objectif initial, à savoir, la promotion et mobilité sociale. Meanwhile the discourse of firms puts a strong emphasize on people's skills, considering it as an important part of their own culture, such a discourse seems not to be compatible with a form of labor organization which aims at segmenting the different forms of workforce use. In this context, it appears that the educative system–either initial or continuing formation–takes part of this segmentation trend in different ways. If as early as the 1950s and 1960s, the Berthoin and Fouchet reforms represented the beginning of a movement to the stratification of proposed knowledge, more recently the reforms which have been engaged by different ministries of National Education (professional degrees, sandwich formation, and so on) have only lead to a strengthening of this trend. Moreover the most recent researches about professional formation suggest that these reforms fail to reach their final aim, i.e. social promotion and mobility.
