Detailed programme

Description of the program

The program consists of seminars organized specifically for this certificate, as well as a set of existing courses. You will be expected to complete a minimum 90-hour program composed of:

  • Courses (minimum 3x30h).

    • You will be asked to choose a minimum of 3 courses from the 8 courses offered. You can choose courses according to your profile (for example, for the communication/public relations profile, courses in information and communication law and intellectual property law could be chosen).

    • For these courses, the audience is mixed: bachelor/master students and certificate students. They are organized at Louvain-la-Neuve and Saint-Louis Bruxelles.

    • The course schedule is generally compatible with a professional activity, particularly because the time slots are concentrated on Wednesdays (Saint-Louis Bruxelles) and Thursdays (Louvain-la-Neuve).

  • Dedicated seminars (2x6h). They are organized solely for the students of the certificate in May-June (after the end of the courses). The themes of these seminars will be communicated during the program and will take into account the interests expressed by the participants.

The program can be spread over two years.
