Benefits of the program

There is currently no degree in the human skills of crisis management, viewed through the prism of the principles, methods and tools of crisis management.

The importance of skills linked to decision-making, victimology, psychology (decision maker, operator, victim, opinions) and intuition under pressure is central to the concept of crisis intelligence.

The course has a strong practical focus through field trips and exercises.
