The retraining initiative takes into account the job experience and knowledge of experienced professionals and is designed for adults.
It uses modern learning methods which allow it to take account of the individual situations of the students. Because it recognizes skills already acquired, the system allows for training time to be shortened.
A skills assessment and complementary aptitude testing help to individually define the student's future training pathway.
