Méthode pédagogique :
Different pedagogical techniques will be used, such as subgroup and plenary exercises and plenary groups, role plays, exercises and role plays, case studies and self-diagnosis tests.
They will allow each participant to better evaluate him/herself, to better grasp the concepts, to integrate the tools and techniques through direct application. The pedagogical methods used during the training are agile and respond to the four fundamental values of the Agile manifesto. We focus on individuals (here the trainees) and their interactions rather than on processes and interactions rather than processes and tools (or techniques a priori), 2) we focus on the operational, by systematically making the link with practices and by using case studies or scenarios rather than exhaustive documentation 3) we adopt a collaborative attitude, whether with the trainees (link with the trainees during the intersession) and 4) we adapt the content of the training to the needs and expectations (rather than following an exact plan).
