Formative and/or partly summative assessment of the student's work over the course of the term.Summative assessment in January: written exam, to be corrected by a board of teachers.
Students will sit one exam per translation workshop (i.e. economic, legal, and scientific and/or technical); each exam will consist in the translation of one or several texts on matters in connection with the topics dealt with over the course of the term.
When two or three workshop are failed, the overall mark will be calculated by averaging the two lowest marks. In case of an overall fail mark, the failed parts will have to be retaken during the September exam session. A mark of 0/20 in one of the parts in January will, regardless of the overall result, mean that part will have to be retaken in September. Students who have failed the teaching unit when the academic year ends will have to retake all three translation workshops (economic, legal, and scientific and/or technical) the following year.
