Professions in “great change”

In this section, Ekod offers two diplomas: one in initial training for a bac + 2 in one year “Web integrator developer” and the other in work-study mode for a bac +3 “Application developer designer”.

It designs and develops secure applications, such as business software, applications for mobiles and tablets, and websites. The skills are organized into three blocks: developing a secure application, designing/developing a layered secure application, preparing for the deployment of a secure application. “These professions are currently undergoing great change. We are therefore adapting to the emergence of generative artificial intelligence”, adds the manager.

The work-study program is organized on a schedule of one week at school, three weeks at work. “The training obviously includes theoretical phases, but above all a lot of practice, the role-play constituting the basis of the work-study program,” underlines Frédéric Renault.
