Warning : please note that the success of this teaching unit does not lead to certification.
The course can only be passed if all parts of the mark have been taken and no part is less than 7/20. Any part that has not been taken or any unjustified absence from any part of the assessment will result in a mark of 1/20 for the course as a whole. However, for the August session, if the overall course average does not reach 10/20, each student will only resit those parts for which he/she has not obtained 10/20. Warning: the TANDEM mark cannot be taken again and is simply transferred to the second session.

Tandem work can be done remotely during Q1.
