A few guidelines before you apply for Short courses:
Gather all documentation before accessing to the platform
Use a computer rather than a mobile phone or a tablet
For video: maximum 5 links, we request direct link (Youtube or Vimeo for example). We won't accept video if we need to download video or with request of authorization. We ask you to indicate password if necessary.

Applications will be processed as they are received, and a response will be sent within 30 days after the file has been validated.
Each applicant will first receive an acknowledgement of receipt by e-mail. A second e-mail will then indicate whether the application is complete or incomplete, as well as any missing documents that need to be provided.
Applications that are not updated or completed within seven days after the registration deadline will not be considered.
The selection process will end once the course is full.
