In each module, an activity will be corrected by the teacher and individual feedback will be given.
Each module is then evaluated on a fixed date for all registrants.
Obtaining the average in each module allows the obtaining of the D.E.
Each year there will be two exam dates (one in January for students enrolled before the beginning of December) and one in April/May for students enrolled after 1/12).
The dates of the final exams will be communicated to you when you register.
