training programme
No sentence (sorry!). It's about a training programme and details sent to potential trainees.
I'm guessing it means a sort of countdown schedule but not really sure.
Many thanks.

Work-back schedule

A rétro-planning in French seems to go from the deadline to the current date (so, a sort of 'reverse schedule'), but a commonly-used term seems to be "Work-back schedule" / work-back plan / work-back project plan, back schedule, etc.
