The academic part of the subject is divided into blocks, in which workshops, practical modules and theory classes will be combined.
Workshops: a collaborative working method is used where the main objectives are achieved through the development of an exercise. Theoretical classes will alternate with a number of practical classes during which a project will be carried out under the supervision of module directors.
This Project will be delivered at the end of the workshop, as a result of all the practical knowledge acquired during the lectures.

The aim of the workshop is to be able to apply the corresponding knowledge of each subject, through practical exercise similar to real-life work experiences.
- Practical modules: Classes taught in the workshops will be the conducting thread with the global contents of the workshop. Therefore, exercises in which students will have to search and elaborate information will be proposed.
This exercise will be done in groups, and will consist of reflection on a previously established monographic theme. Based on this, student must take notes and search information which they will then share with the rest of the class under the supervision of the module director. The main objective is to learn communication and project-advertising skills through the exchange of different views and opinions.

- Theory modules: The structure of the theory modules is based on a series of conferences in which the different teachers will make sure students obtain the necessary theoretical knowledge.

Module on personal skills: Throughout the course, a module on personal skills is provided within each subject. This module provides students with the knowledge and personal skills related to employment, that will prepare them to address fluid communication with clients, learn non-verbal communication techniques and selling techniques.

Working site visits:
During the course, complementary site visits will be organized. This way students can learn to solve in-situ construction details, solutions and situations.
