The information presented here regarding the organization of classes and evaluation modalities may change at any time in response to the epidemiological reality. All changes will be communicated via Toledo, stating the correct information which should be applied (at all times).

Application of the most important subjects of the specialisation courses through excursions, practical exercises, interactive lectures and/or digital variants. First aid is an intergral part of the practical applications.

The program will be available on Toledo.

Part B:
