An innovative pedagogy that ensures effective learning

Autonomous learning

Intended for working professionals or those undergoing retraining, our training courses are all designed to offer a pace that is compatible with schedule constraints (whether they are personal or professional). This adaptive learning allows the learner to progress according to his or her previous experience, affinities and curiosity (depending on the level of depth desired), in a learning context firmly anchored in the business world.

Social learning

Social learning makes it possible to group learners around innovative, dynamic and interactive learning methods (webinars, games, think tanks, etc.). This encourages listening, consultation and exchange, transmission and gathering of ideas (even friendships!). Training referents answer questions but everyone can contribute to the explanations. With EcoLearn, you will benefit from free coaching and access to our community.

Action learning

Our learning and pedagogy are resolutely action-oriented. The objective is that our learners develop a complete and systemic mastery of each sustainability topic, both strategic and operational. All of our tools serve to anchor knowledge and to confront the reality of the company and the business. Learners also have access to best practices and tools from our expert speakers and peers.
