Teaching Methods
It is intended to focus on joint reflection, with the participation of students from the analysis of small handouts and case studies, and opportunity-to-date and further raise the systematization of ideas, as well as the application and validation of theoretical models.
The methodology to be used in classes will be based on the expository method only for the presentation of basic concepts and analysis tools.
The objective is to favor joint reflection, with the participation of students, based on the analysis of supporting texts and case studies that, due to their timeliness and opportunity, encourage the systematization and deepening of ideas, as well as the application and validation of theoretical models.
The teaching sessions will actually be of a theoretical-practical nature and the teaching/learning model will be very student-centered, with the plan being that, each week, there will be the presentation and group discussion of a Case Study, referring to each topic of the program.

Assessment
The continuous assessment process involves three elements of assessment mandatory:
1) A Written Test/1st Test carried out in a group (3 to 4 elements), 30%.
2) Oral Presentation and discussion of the resolution of a Case Study on an HR policy. This structured presentation will be previously assigned to each group and will be based on a grid of items defined by the teaching team. This element will be developed in a group (3 to 4 elements), 15%.
3) An individual written test / 2nd frequency, with consultation, 55%.
The minimum grade for any element provided for in the continuous assessment process is 7 points.
Exam: Students who do not participate in the continuous assessment process or do not complete the process will have the opportunity to take an exam on all the contents of the program.
