deducted from the annual paid leave, may be granted, at his
request, to a worker or apprentice who wishes to attend a course
exclusively devoted to workers' education or trade union training
and organized either by a centre attached to a worker's trade
union organization recognized as representative at the national
level or by an organization, institution or agency specially
approved to this effect by the Minister in charge of Labour.
(2) The duration of the said leave which may be split up shall be
agreed upon by both parties. The leave, which shall not exceed
