2. Course structure design 2.2. Learning objectives formulation with a practical and clear approach

In order to formulate practice-oriented objectives, we have to express them according to what participants will be able to know and do after completing the course. We will express them in a concise way, employing one infinitive verb and, preferably, only one single learning object. In this way, we will gain in clarity and comprehension.
