Our Working Methodology
The program is entirely online, with both synchronous and asynchronous activities, meaning you will have moments when you need to connect at specific times and moments when you can study at your own pace and at the time you prefer.
You will have live classes, videos, interactive presentations, podcasts, downloadable materials, chats, and group activities that will allow you to put into practice what you have learned, within an attractive, intuitive, and dynamic platform.
The coaches are there to facilitate the reflection process among participants, addressing the gaps between knowledge and goals, raising awareness of the aspects we value and the breaking points to take care of.
