French term or phrase: formation dite 'adpatation à la fonction'
Not sure what we call this - job adaptation training?

"Elle offre également des possibilités de perfectionnement et de formation continue tant pour leur permettre de se préparer une promotion (formation dite adaptation à la fonction) que pour se maintenir informés de l'évolution de l'action de l'administration pénitentiaire."
Pamela Hewitt
English translation:job- or position- specific training
Explanation:
This doesn't imply any that the training is specific to a 'higher' job, but I think it is the general equivalent and gets round the awkwardness of trying to talk about 'adaptiveness'/'adaptation' in English.
