GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Spanish term or phrase: prácticas vacacionales
I am translating an academic transcript from Peru for Nursing Studies.

Upon first seeing the term, I thought it was a typo for 'prácticas vocacionales' but now I am unsure since it appears 4 separate times throughout the various pages of the transcript and it is not handwritten, so I am definitely not misreading the letters.

Can anyone confirm that it is an error or does 'practicas vacacionales' exist? If so, what is it?

Explanation:
This translation preserves the idea that the training periods are between academic sessions without giving the recreational flavor that vacacional has in English.
