Teaching method

The classes shall be given in English.

The training is organised face-to-face and alternates between:

  • Theory
  • A minimum of 25% of case studies
  • Simulation exercises (table top exercise, hands-on lab, practical exercise of sorting mass casualties etc.). 

Each training module is carried out by two instructors: an academic and a field expert in order to guarantee both the university character of the classes and their integrative dimension.
