La biblioterapia è una disciplina utilizzata in diverse parti del mondo da oltre un secolo.
Partendo dalla bibliografia scientifica a disposizione, sono stati fissati degli obiettivi formativi in grado di permettere ai professionisti italiani di inserirla all'interno delle proprie competenze. Si partirà dalla conoscenza del processo biblioterapeutico come strumento per gestire un progetto di biblioterapia partendo dall'ideazione per arrivare fino alla verifica. Accanto ad esso, verranno acquisite tutta una serie di nozioni necessarie alla realizzazione dei progetti.
La conoscenza della letteratura applicata, della lettura espressiva a voce alta, della filosofia della narrazione, della poesia-terapia, della letteratura per l'infanzia, della medicina narrativa e dei modelli stranieri di biblioterapia andranno a completare le capacità di applicazione del processo biblioterapeutico quale obiettivo primario.
Un ulteriore obiettivo formativo sarà quello di sviluppare le abilità necessarie a inserire nelle diverse professionalità la biblioterapia come competenza spendibile nei diversi contesti.

Other useful things

Crediti Formativi Universitari (CFU/ECTS credits): Italian university courses are based on the CFU system. 1 CFU is equal to 25 hours of study. The average annual academic workload for a full-time student is generally assumed to be 60 CFU. CFU and ECTS credits serve the same purpose and generally have the same value.
Degree class: Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes that have the same learning objectives and activities are grouped into “degree classes". The educational content of each programme is set autonomously by each university; however, universities are required to include certain educational activities (and the corresponding number of CFU credits) set at the national level. These requirements are established in relation to each degree class. Degrees in the same class have the same legal value.
Double/Joint degrees: the Italian universities may establish degree programmes in partnership with other Italian or foreign universities. Upon completion of these courses, graduates are awarded a joint or double/multiple degree, one from each Partner University.
