Training offer model used

The training offer is made up of a range of courses.

In Ametys ODF , 5 hierarchical elements are used to describe the training offer:

  1. training
  2. the routes
  3. containers (year or semester)
  4. lists of teaching elements
  5. pedagogical elements
  6. 2 additional elements: contacts and components

1) Training

The course object is the entry point to a course.
A training program can be structured in courses, semesters and/or years.

2) The routes

They represent pedagogical pathways leading to the diploma.
A pathway can itself be organized into years, semesters or other pathways.

3) Containers

Years or semesters are used to divide training into different periods.
A year can itself be organized into semesters.

4) Lists of teaching elements

An ELP list represents a set of teaching elements or UE (unité d'enseignement).
The list determines whether the teaching elements it contains are compulsory or optional.

A list can be placed anywhere in the course tree: under the course, under a path, under a container or under a learning element.

5) Pedagogical elements

Teaching elements, or ELPs, are used to describe a course, or teaching unit, provided in the training program.
ELPs can be shared, i.e. the same teaching unit can be used in several training programs.

An ELP is necessarily a direct child of a list of pedagogical elements.
It can itself contain a list or several lists of ELPs to further describe the course (internship, subjects, tutored projects, etc.).

6) 2 additional items:

  • Contacts: enter one or more training contacts
  • Components and establishments: you must enter the component(s) to which a course is attached.

The two additional elements are not linked to the catalog.
