Teaching method

Teaching  

The programme is organised into intensive, in-person modules and alternates between:

  • theory;
  • demonstrations, practical exercises, and out-of-class work to delve deeper into theoretical knowledge learned and confront participants with the difficulties tied to relevant and trustworthy sources;

Based on active learning, the programme is taught by lecturers from the professional world and academia.
