French term

diplôme d'enseignement supérieur long

Homework / test French to English Other Education / Pedagogy Studies in France
I don't seem to be able to find an explanation of this term used for a French qualification. I have been told that it is only given by the Grandes Ecoles, what would this be in the regular French uni system, maîtrise, licence, DES.

Many thanks

Traviata, I wanted to give them to you but I didn't want to enter plusieurs possibilit�s into the glossary, so I thought my only option was to decline. If I erase the translation entry and leave the term and hit gloss/add or modify the entry does that work? I can repost you can answer and I'll award you the points if you want?

People who help you find the answer are usually thanked with some points, not declined.

It's all uni studies including the DEUG, the short one are two year vocational studies. It's listed in the link you gave me Traviata. Thank you very much for your time and effort.

Ne sont exclus du b�n�fice de ce cong� que les travailleurs titulaires d'un dipl�me de l'enseignement sup�rieur long ou d'un dipl�me professionnel depuis moins de trois ans.

Is it DEUG + (end of 1st cycle studies) or Ma�trise + (end of second cycle or undergraduate studies)?
Thanks once again

No, it's to get leave from your job to study something work-related

Do you know what educational institution issued the degree?

Plusieurs possibilités

It could be one of many: the term refers to all advanced university or Grandes Écoles studies - usually post-DEUG, therefore licence, capes, masters, DESS, DEA, PhD

L'enseignement supérieur long: les universités
Recueille parfois les étudiants qui n'ont pas été admis ailleurs
Plus de 50% de ceux qui obtiennent le bac vont à l'université
40% de ceux-là ne finissent même pas la 1ere année
L'université: les 3 cycles:
Le premier cycle: 2 ans d'études pour le DEUG
diplôme d'études universitaires générales
Le second cycle:
la licence =le DEUG + un an
la maîtrise =La licence + un an
Le troisième cycle: deux filières
le DSS = la maîtrise + un an
le DESS: diplôme d'études supérieures spécialisés; un diplôme professionnel
le DEA --diplôme d'études approfondies
études d'un an; une formation à la recherche
DEA + 2 ans = thèse de doctorat (doctorat 3e cycle)

In your context, then, I would say workers holding a post-graduate degree

post-graduate qualification

Declined
For UK contexts, this equivalent would mean beyond first degree status, further than BA, BSc, LLB, bachelor level degrees (3 or 4 years, depending on course, institution etc.) into the realm of second degrees, Masters and beyond.

a higher education qualification

Thank you for posting the context. It really does help siutate the term.

"Ne sont exclus du bénéfice de ce congé que les travailleurs titulaires d'un diplôme de l'enseignement supérieur long ou d'un diplôme professionnel depuis moins de trois ans"

Suggested rendering :
"The only employees who are not entitled to take (or : excluded from taking) advantage of this time out, are those who already hold a higher education or professional qualification..."
