Consult below the various aids offered by the Cellule interfacultaire d'appui pédagogique. These have of course been adapted to students' current needs (tools on e-learning, preparing for a blockade following a distance quadrimester, studying for an open-course exam...). In order to be accessible at a distance, all tools are digitized and accessible via Webcampus.

1. For students at the University of Namur, the cellule interfacultaire d'appui pédagogique (CIAP) offers free group methodological workshops and individualized support throughout the academic year, mainly in the area of methodological skills. It also provides a number of dynamic tool sheets available to students on various topics such as note-taking, time management, identifying teachers' expectations, e-learning... The Cellule interfacultaire d'appui pédagogique also organizes training for students who have dropped out, helping them to reorient their studies: Rebond training.
2. For teachers at the Université de Namur, the cell fulfills a mission to support and promote pedagogical innovations. Internally, it supports teaching through a variety of services: publication of an in-house teaching magazine (RESEAU), assistance with the design and development of projects for teachers in the increasingly frequent use of ICTE, management and development of the WebCampus platform, support for requests from teachers (pedagogical advice, product design and development, project support, pedagogical design, etc.), departments (e.g., introducing students to oral presentation) or faculties (e.g., evaluation of a year's program). Externally, CIAP participates in the training of Hautes Écoles teachers as part of the CAPAES program.
3. Finally, to ensure the high quality of its services and training, the unit develops research on the following themes:

• factors for success in higher education and early dropout
• supporting students in the transition from secondary to higher education (taking into account the importance of emotional regulation in learning)
• pre-requisites for university training
• pedagogy in higher education
• integrating ICTE into higher education (WebCampus, project support, etc..)
• higher education-specific didactics
