How you’ll learn
Live online learning
- Join instructor-led sessions in real time, ask questions, and collaborate with peers—delivered online and aligned to CET/CEST for learners in Poland.
Self-study (structured)
- Part-time: 9 hours live learning + ~11 hours self-study (≈20 hours/week)
- Full-time: 22.5 hours live learning + ~17.5 hours self-study (≈40 hours/week)
Flipped classroom approach
- You’ll review materials before class, then use live sessions for practice, discussion, and feedback—so learning time is active, not passive.
Guided practice & portfolio work
- Every program is built around hands-on exercises and projects. You’ll practise skills as you learn them and graduate with portfolio-ready work you can show (internally at work or to employers).
