Attending students may pass two ongoing assessments.
The first assessment (writtent test) will concern the first and second parts of the program and will consist of a set of 'open' questions and exercises concerning brand names and slogans.
The second assessment (oral exposition) will consist in the presentation by the student of the exposé. Each assessment will be evaluated in /30. The exam will be completed during the oral examination. The final mark will be given by the average of the oral examination and ongoing assessments. ERASMUS students are asked to contact the teacher at the beginning of the course for explainations.

NON-ATTENDANTS are asked to contact the teacher during the office hours for instructions concerning the preparation of the "exposé" which will be part of the oral exam.
