Personalized support, which is central to the program, involves the development of an individual intra- or entrepreneurial project for transformation or innovation to be structured and developed throughout the program and built alongside mentors.

WHAT WILL YOU GET OUT OF THIS TRAINING COURSE?

At the end of the training course, you will join a large network of leaders between France and Africa. The skills and achievements acquired throughout the program will be recognized and accredited by a certificate issued by four prestigious institutions.
