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

• A project-based teaching method: individual or group work on real cases proposed by a partner company or 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. As part of the work-study programme, students benefit from support modules to help them find a company to sign a professional or apprenticeship contract.
• As part of the work-study programme, students benefit from support modules to help them find a company to sign a professional or apprenticeship contract.
• 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:

• Assessments are made on a continuous basis throughout the school year: all the subjects taught are assessed in the form of files, oral presentations, MCQs, etc.
• End-of-semester assessments are used to evaluate the student's progress and to validate the semester and the passage to the next year.

The assessment for graduation includes the following elements:

• Role-playing exercises that put the student in a situation of active listening and exchange with the client, enabling the student's negotiation skills to be assessed.
• 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.
