CerTICa will help you develop the three essential components:

-continuously adjusting practices
CerTICa will also help you :
-build and conduct training sessions aiming at deep learning
-target selfregulation of students

Prerequisite knowledge and skills
It is essential you to be active as a trainer during Certica since you will be asked to carry out activities with your own groups of learners.
In addition, you will have to attend a training (minimum two days) in another institution. This training has to be related to the topics of Certica. You will be asked to develop a critical analysis that will be part of your portfolio.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
CerTICa's methodology is adapted to your needs and your professional context. This training program, based on active pedagogy, will give you the opportunity to be really active in your learning process (scenario, case analysis, problem-based-learning, collaborative work,..).
A series of conferences, seminars, labs or open classes are organized and can be chosen with a large flexibility, following your interests as well as your former experience. Those learning activities, valorized in the program, will be announced on a monthly base through the programs' website.
You will benefit from an individual follow-up by a tutor (each participant is visited two times in his/her own professional environment), in order to facilitate the transfer to your professional practice. Moreover, with your tutor's help, you will have to implement pedagogic innovations in your own groups of learners.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Mixt setting, combining face-to-face and eLearning :
- Face-to- face sessions (conferences, seminars, labs);
- eLearning activities (for example in order to get ready for the face-to-face sessions);
- On site visits and peer observations.
Recommended or required readings
Assessment methods and criteria
This training provides the participants with individual follow-up in order to ensure an effective transfer (from tools and reflections tackled in the conferences, seminars, labs, external trainings, etc.) into their professional practice. Our team will meet each participant twice in his/her professional context. Based on dialogue, this formative assessment provides a valuable opportunity for dialogue and an exchange that reflects on your teaching methods and their real impact on your teaching.
The activities are "Learning Units" (LU), 4 Learning Units forming a Credit (in the meaning of ECTS). LUs can be valorized through attestations. Gathering 40 LU i.e. between 120 and 140 face-to-face hours) is necessary in order for the participant to be authorized to hand in a teaching portfolio.
The CerTICca certificate is awarded on the basis of that teaching portfolio in which participants show evidence of their progress regarding the Certica competences and of their professional development as a whole. The portfolio has to be presented and defended orally in front of a jury.
The portfolio is assessed on the basis of criteria (form, content and quality of the evidences selected in order to demonstrate the professional development, quality of the reflection) communicated to the participants as the enroll in the program.
