How our distance learning courses run

A few days before the training, the participant receives by email :

• the invitation and the program including the objectives, the pedagogical methods and the methods for monitoring and assessing the results

• the connection link to the videoconferencing system

• the link to download the course material in PDF format

• Software and hardware configurations for practical work


At the specified time, the participants connect to the videoconference system:

• Introduction of the trainer, followed by the presentation of the participants and the training agenda.

• The course follows the program: projection of slides commented and explained by the trainer, punctuated by questions asked to the participants to evaluate their understanding.

• Participants can interact with the trainer and all participants by asking questions or suggesting thoughts, either verbally or through the dialogue interface built into the video conferencing system.

• The trainer performs demonstrations using the hardware and software tools of the training subject. The participants are then invited to reproduce them. Thanks to the videoconference system, they share their screen, allowing the trainer to evaluate their progress, and eventually help and guide them when they encounter difficulties.

• At the end of the service, the participants fill out a satisfaction form to note the quality of the service and to suggest reflections or improvements.

• A certificate of training is given, indicating: the subject, the dates and the list of objectives achieved.
