Yes. Progressive hints, unblocking help and debriefs are provided to support learning progress.
A grade is used to validate ECTS credits when BrevetAI is integrated into a curriculum. A micro-certification validates skills through a badge.
Yes. Each formula leads to a distinct micro-certification.
The full certification is based on two micro-certifications: one after Discovery and one after Advanced.
Using AI tools is possible, but results are not always reliable. Certification combines quizzes and practical activities to better guarantee learning outcomes.
Yes, including impacts on work and risks linked to AI usage.
Yes, with an approach that includes humanities and social sciences: environmental impact, ethical issues, legal framework and scientific issues.
Two formulas are available: Discovery (around 10 hours) and Advanced (around 20 hours).
