Program

The discipline of Methodology II operates under a special regime, which focuses on the professional stage, developed in sports training centers (STC).
For STC means a core of in-service training in the specific context of sports training, where students will be confronted with the problems raised by practice.
The STC can integrate all ages and levels of practice within the Sports Participation and Performnce.
In very exceptional cases will be implemented the Alternative Education Plan (APP) (i.e, when is not feasible the frequency of STC). The STC is the performance of work directly related to professional practice under the guidance of the teacher responsible.
The formal teaching sessions are occupied by thematic workshops, sessions of reflection and discussion about the professional stage participating all students and teachers; as well as by the individual meetings of teachers with each STC and the students of the APP.
