The triple helix model makes it possible to identify the relationships between the university, the enterprise and the State in order to produce knowledge and innovate. The State creates the appropriate institutional framework. In the case of learning contracts, the other two stakeholders, endowed with their own resources, pursue various objectives: professionalization of training for the university, competitiveness and innovation for the enterprises. The student, at the center of the learning contract, has the objective to improve their employability. As a transmission belt between the university and the enterprise, they can promote the dissemination of academic knowledge and participate in the emergence of innovations for the benefit of the enterprise. This reflection is based on the study of a Master’s degree in Supply Chain and Modeling under an apprenticeship contract.}}
