Professional profiles and employment and professional opportunities

Il Corso di formazione continua si inserisce nel panorama dei cambiamenti in atto nelle politiche e nei servizi per il lavoro che hanno ricevuto un impulso anche nel quadro del Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza (PNRR). La proposta formativa mira a fornire metodi e strumenti operativi essenziali per accompagnare giovani e adulti nella definizione del proprio progetto formativo e/o professionale, declinato in funzione sia delle caratteristiche e dei bisogni degli utenti che delle concrete esigenze delle organizzazioni.
Entrando più nello specifico, al centro del Corso si colloca l’acquisizione e lo sviluppo di competenze finalizzate:
(a) alla definizione di progetti professionali e/o di formazione in linea con i fabbisogni, le caratteristiche individuali, i tratti motivazionali e le competenze degli utenti;
(b) all’elaborazione di piani di sviluppo e di carriera a sostegno dell’occupabilità;
(c) alla gestione di particolari momenti di transizione della vita formativa e/o professionale con l’intento di supportare gli utenti nella capitalizzazione delle esperienze e competenze, nonché nell’adattamento di questo bagaglio di risorse alle mutevoli richieste del mercato del lavoro.
I/Le partecipanti al Corso di formazione continua saranno, altresì, coinvolti/e in un laboratorio esperienziale di career coaching durante il quale avranno modo di sperimentare proattivamente su sé stessi/e un percorso di bilancio e sviluppo personale. Attraverso attività di peer coaching e il feedback personalizzato da parte dei docenti, ciascun partecipante potrà sviluppare le proprie competenze di ‘career self-management’ ed elaborare un piano individuale di valorizzazione della propria professionalità.
Il Corso è rivolto agli operatori/specialisti del mercato e dei servizi per il lavoro, agli addetti alle politiche attive, ai consulenti di orientamento, ai counselor, ai coach, ai consulenti del lavoro, agli psicologi, agli orientatori e consulenti scolastici, agli operatori del settore outplacement, ai laureati in discipline psicologiche, sociologiche, sociali, giuridiche, economiche che ambiscono ad aggiungere alla performance quotidiana competenze di:
(a) promozione dell’occupabilità dell'utente;
(b) agevolazione delle transizioni professionali;
(c) pianificazione di percorsi personalizzati di ‘career professional development’.

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.
