Methods and Evaluation

The pedagogy implemented in the different modules is adapted to the different learning objectives. Active teaching methods are favoured, and co-modal methods are developed. Group sizes are small, allowing for privileged interaction, both among peers and with professionals and professors.
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.

The award of the certification is conditional upon the validation of all competency blocks according to the chosen track, and proof of the required weeks of professional experience in the targeted field.

Each validated year allows the acquisition of 60 ECTS credits.
