The programme is assessed through two main methods:

Continuous assessment: assessments are carried out throughout the course in the form of individual or group projects to be submitted for evaluation;
The professional dissertation: submission of a written document and oral defence of the dissertation before a jury composed of the academic tutor and company tutor.

At the end of the course and after validation of the continuous assessment and the professional dissertation, the Bachelor in Management, RNCP Level 6, is awarded to participants. If certain modules have not been validated and therefore the credits have not been obtained, the student can take a resit exam to catch up on these credits during the periods reserved for this purpose.
