The short-course schedule
The catalogue's 5 short courses are settled in one payment and taken entirely at your own pace. They are the institution's least binding entry point, and their price is published in the same place, and in the same way, as every other.
The least costly way to try
A few weeks are enough to know whether a field suits you. That is what the short course exists for: it is settled in one payment, taken at your own pace, awards a course attestation and leaves lasting access to the content taken. Its price is the lowest in the catalogue, and it is displayed in the same place as every other — an entry price kept back for the interview is exactly the one that makes people leave.
The full schedule
These amounts cover the whole course. The pace is yours: the duration shown is that of the recommended route, not an expiry date.

What sets a short course apart
A single payment
One amount, once, for the whole course. No monthly access keeps running afterwards.
Entirely self-paced
You open the content when your week allows, and return to it whenever you wish.
An attestation at the end
It states the hours attended and the date. It is the first document in a file you build up afterwards.

Questions about short courses
Does a short course open the way to a long programme?
It gives an honest first measure of your appetite and your weekly availability, and the admission interview draws on it. It is the cheapest way to test an intuition before committing a full programme budget.
Can this amount also be paid in instalments?
Yes: the 3-payment arrangement applies to short courses as well, for the same total as a single payment.
Does access stop at the end of the stated duration?
The content you took stays available afterwards. The stated duration describes the recommended route, and your calendar remains yours.
