French term or phrase: formation en commandite active
It appears on a cv. I don't have more context to offer but the cv is marketing-focused.

FORMATION PROFESSIONNELLE

Université de XXX

Premier cycle multidisciplinaire : formation
langues modernes: anglais, italien et espagnol
psychologie des organisations

Invitation au Mentorat au MBA, automne 2003 Université de XXX

Name 1 & Name 2 (could be a company)

Formation en commandite active

I think I found the meaning in GDT (http://www.granddictionnaire.com/btml/fra/r_motclef/index102... but I still don't know the English term.

Any help would be appreciated.

This was a hard one. I had to ask the client to explain the meaning of this. This is what I was told: "She has been trained...to find active sponsorships for various events." I do think that the word "active" is not needed in English but I left it as "Training in active sponsorship" to please the client. Basically, what this means is that the person is in charge of finding sponsors for events (music festivals, etc.) This makes sense in the context of her cv. And in this context, it does not apply to training sponsored by her school, as I originally thought.
