ASSESSMENT SYSTEMS:
The assessment system is primarily based on a written test. Tests of this course include cases through which it aims to assess the student's ability to apply knowledge acquired during a real or fictional case.
1. Students who choose the continuous assessment system:
First call: The test accounts for 70% of the final grade of the student.
30% of the final grade is based on continuous assessment. The resolution of cases and issues related to the subject in the hours devoted to workshops and seminars will be a 30% of the final grade.
Note: The score on continuous assessment is stored in the two calls for each course. Only during the academic year. If the student fails or does not show the final exam, the mark of continuous assessment is lost.
2. Students who do not benefit from continuous assessment system:
80% of the note using written test, 10% of the mark by a voluntary oral test, and another 10% from a voluntary task. Both first and second call, access to 100% of the grade. The oral test and the voluntary task are only performed once, keeping the note to the two calls for each course. If the student repeats the course, the next course should retake the oral test and the voluntary task.
