The new cycle of lessons of the Fondazione Cologni, offered free of charge to all 26 young talents selected for the project Una Scuola, un Lavoro. Paths of Excellence. Designed ad hoc, it includes 150 hours of targeted training, structured as follows: History of Applied Arts by Corsi Arte; Design and Personal branding by Politecnico di Milano; Microenterprise Management by SDA Bocconi, with the SDA Bocconi for Growth initiative; Digital Communication by Iulm University. Added to this program are lessons on self-entrepreneurship with Formaper, a visit to some of Milan's artisan workshops and a course on Health and Safety in the Workplace, delivered by IndirizzoAmbiente, to bring trainees up to speed with Legislative Decree 81/08. Whatever the professional sector of the participants, this valuable training opportunity can start them on the road to greater awareness regarding the needs of an artisan 2.0, and provide them with the first tools to respond to contemporary challenges. Selected from all over Italy, the 22 "off-site" students will be able to attend the Master in presence thanks to the support of the project's Hospitality partner, Starhotels, which will host them in its two facilities Tourist and Business Palace. The Mini Master's program is preparatory to the six months of internship training in the workshop that the youngsters are about to undergo, under the guidance of great master artisans, as the Project foresees. www.unascuolaunlavoro.it
