Modalités
Instruction is based on active participation in a group context.
To this end, beyond standard learning through presenting a theory on a specific subject, great attention will be paid to the application of concepts through case studies, exercises, and oral presentations.
This application of theory will take the form of role plays so that the instruction is as close as possible to reality in a company. In doing so, students will be aware of the requirements of the labour market on the subjects taught in this course, regardless of the profession that they will subsequently pursue. As a result, accounting, especially international accounting, will become part of their every day lives, even if their chosen profession is far from it.
