We design and deliver courses and improvement paths on topics to foster the development of transversal skills necessary to create a more sustainable, fair and inclusive society.
We do not provide professional skills – this is the job of universities and professional institutes. We aim to help people develop transversal skills that are often forgotten by school, such as the ability to communicate, collaborate, make analysis and make decisions, solving problems without forgetting the ability to adapt to the changing world while becoming more savvy with digital tools and the latest technology.
The activities offered are based on formal and non-formal training techniques, managed by professional teachers in the field, who teach and are perfecting their skills by participating in various European projects. Through the projects, in fact, our educators learn new techniques, which serve us to offer new ways to foster continuous learning.
To better understand what actions and opportunities to offer, we carry out various analyses to identify problems, shortcomings, areas for improvement, causes of discomfort or disruption, waste, and in general the elements that can affect the genuine development of human capacity.
Often, our inspiration lies in the sustainable development goals themselves, to give a clear and unambiguous purpose to our interventions. In other cases, we want to contribute directly to specific European policies, and to address one or more of the 20 social pillars promoted by the European Commission, or one or more of the goals of youth policies or in a broad manner, to help create a fairer society, inclusive, safe and sustainable. This allows us to offer improvement programmes, projects, or courses that best meet current needs and, as always, with a European approach.
