The asynchronous part will be structured around various complementary activities designed by our speakers, as well as a discussion forum moderated by an IFM expert.

What platform will be used ?

All of our online Summer Schools programs run on Microsoft Teams, a platform for video conferencing, collaborative tools, document sharing and discussion forums.

Is the planning compatible with different time zones?

Yes.

I don't have a computer, can I use a phone or tablet ?

The use of a telephone is strongly discouraged. The size of the screen will make it difficult for you to complete all activities. In this case, the use of a tablet is preferable, although it is still ideal to follow the program on the computer.
