The conservation and transmission of intangible cultural heritage is the most difficult thing to achieve. To be well done, it must go through field surveys. Among the elements that come into play for this preservation is the language. The latter constitutes the first vehicle for the transmission of heritage. A language, whatever its status, must be transmitted, because by transmitting it, one transmits an entire culture, that is to say all the habits, practices, and traditional uses relating to a given group as well as the set of notions relating to the past. Should higher education, in its programs, introduce training modules relating to the pedagogy of field surveys, especially since each field is situational? Field research is very important insofar as it constitutes an educational tool and a tool for learning and acquiring new methods of investigation.
