Abstract

The article presents a training and research experience in ageing of over 35 years and considers mutations in supply, pedagogy and students. Within an in-housing training framework, pedagogical and scientific steps coordinate the principles of permanent education and cooperative action-research with the aims of a university opening onto differing populations and territories. The integration of students who already have a basic training will hence forth influence the setting up of pedagogical orientations. Moreover the multiplication of competing professional masters' degrees affects the visibility of skills, professional certifications and employment. This situation is compared with that of two universities: Sherbrooke (Québec) and São Paulo (Brazil).
