Every course page states its workload, its real prerequisite, the exact skill it validates and its amount in Guinean francs. You decide with the full picture, before creating any account.
How to read a course page
Duration means work
The figure shown is the actual work you will put in, week after week. It is the only measure that lets you block out a slot and keep it.
The prerequisite places you
It states what is assumed and what the course builds upon. Reading it closely gets you the right entry point, first time.
The price is shown
The amount appears in Guinean francs, with its unit, right on the catalogue card. The same for everyone, known before you speak to anybody.
The skill is named
Every course page states the professional act you will be able to carry out at the end. That is what the certificate will attest, word for word.
What this side of the school opens to enrolment
Three families sit side by side: the short course, which installs a tool; the professional certification, which covers a role; the professional qualification, which targets a named trade and is prepared against the filed catalogue framework.

Choosing with confidence
Where to start when everything looks useful?
With the skill your job is asking for this month. A short course finishes in a few weeks and gives you a first proof: it also teaches you what pace suits you, which makes the next choice far more reliable.
Can I take two programmes at once?
Yes, provided you add up the weekly workloads shown and check that the total fits your week. The table above gives the exact figure for each programme, which makes the sum immediate.
Does the catalogue grow?
It rests on a base of 444 modules across 13 fields, published with its exact count. Beyond that, material is produced to specification, at the request of an employer or a group of learners.
