LISAA's approach to teaching is geared to the progress of the student towards successful professional integration. To achieve this, it uses a variety of methods:

• A project-based teaching method: individual or group work on real cases submitted by a partner company or on representative cases. The student presents his project report orally and in writing, accompanied by visuals and models. His or her presentation is evaluated by the trainers and or professionals from the partner company.
• Training led by teachers who are working professionals and experts in their field.
• Individual pedagogical follow-up allowing each student to situate him/herself in his/her progress towards the acquisition of skills and to prepare his/her project and professional integration.
• Within the framework of the work-study programme, students benefit from support modules to help them find a company to sign a professional contract or an apprenticeship.
• Meetings and conferences led by former students and professionals are organised at the school.
• Internship periods are integrated into the training to allow students to develop their skills in the field.

Students are assessed throughout the course:

• Role-playing exercises put the student in a situation of active listening and exchange with the client, allowing him/her to evaluate his/her negotiation skills in particular. 
• An oral presentation of the project file (30 to 40 minutes)
• The student presents his/her project with the file worked on during the year of training, before a jury composed of professionals from outside the school. The jury will assess the student's professional attitude and the quality of the project in its visual presentation, its feasibility, its realism and its risk-taking...
• Several case studies are proposed based on a real interior architecture or design project, putting the student in the position of project manager and allowing the evaluation of his or her ability to manage the realization of a project.
• A report on experience and professional activity is presented, linked to the work placement or work-study programme.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES

How to get into a school of interior architecture and design? Admission to LISAA is done outside the Parcoursup system. Candidates have the opportunity to enter this course at the beginning of each year.

However, the application procedures will differ depending on the year you wish to enter:

• entry in 1st, 2nd and 3rd year: during an oral interview, you will be able to present your file (personal work for entry in 1st year and project portfolio for entry from 2nd year).

The oral interview and the presentation of a project portfolio will allow us to evaluate your motivation, your professional project and your ability to mobilise your already acquired knowledge and skills in order to apply them to this training.

Candidates who have obtained an RNCP qualification of a similar level and speciality elsewhere may ask us for total or partial equivalence for admission to the LISAA School of Interior Architecture and Design.

Any student or work-study student can ask for help from the disability advisor before or during the course to obtain advice and assistance in adapting the course, assessments and finding a host company. The premises are accessible to people with disabilities.
