Abstract: In several sub-Saharan African countries, informal apprenticeships are the preferred route to wage employment. Thus, it is a question of studying the different registers of transmission of skills regarding informal professional apprenticeships in the building careers, mainly masonry, in the region of Butembo, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. On construction sites, the learning of masonry is organized through a social and economic logic, while the pedagogical logic of transmitting skills is more based on the analogy and proceduralization of the site. These different patterns are often reflected in the motivation for recruiting apprentices or the motivations to learn masonry.
