Learning Methods

Trainees organize their own customized training program based on their profile and the 6 learning modules available.

A learning unit lasts 18 minutes, on average and may include: videos, role plays, case studies, interactive experiences, quizzes, tutorials.

A training program includes 4 to 25 learning units depending on the trainee’s profile.

There is no set program, you make all the choices

  • You choose the modules to be included in your program depending on your profile and what you want to achieve.
  • You decide when a unit has been completed and the information assimilated.
  • The evaluation units at the end of the modules are milestones for you to see how much you’ve learned.
  • You can finish the course whatever your scores.

For some trainees, the course will take 30 minutes, for others a few hours. Some will only take one module, others will choose to explore them all.

What is important is not only to give you specific skills to help you take accessibility into account in your activities, but also to get you motivated and convinced of the importance of making your content accessible.

If you are curious, you can also, at any time, follow units of a module that aren’t included in your program. Go ahead and take a look!
