Professional education and training - three year courses
Professional Education and Training (IeFP) courses are designed for students who wish to acquire specific training for entry into the world of work. The courses make it possible to combine traditional theoretical knowledge with a strong practical component through lectures conducted by experts in various fields, workshop activities, and internship opportunities in work and business settings. IeFP courses make it possible to obtain a vocational qualification that is immediately marketable in the labor marke, This does not, however, preclude the possibility of continuing professional training or school studies.

Who are they
Workshop activities and time frame
The knowledge and skills for each professional role are developed through teaching based on practical and workshop experience, built on the project-based method, simulation, role playing and orientational teaching with the possibility of activating Transferable Skills and Orientation Courses (PCTO) that allow students to enrich their personal assets with a set of knowledge, abilities and attitudes (soft skills) that enable them to adopt appropriate behaviours for the different situations in which they may find themselves as workers but, above all, as citizens.
In IeFP courses, an attempt is also made to hone skills "in the field" through apprenticeship contracts whereby students are hired and placed directly in the host company, receiving a wage and continuing to study and train in the workplace.
The total number of hours is between a minimum of 990 and a maximum of 1056 hours per year, depending on the regulations adopted by individual regions, and educational and training institutions can decide independently on the timetable of the course (which includes theoretical lessons for basic and technical/vocational training, workshop activities and practical activities in the workplace), ensuring compliance with certain percentages by area of competence.
After a professional qualification (three-year)
After obtaining a professional qualification, students may choose to:
- directly enter a _profession;
- attend a fourth-year course run by Professional Institutes accredited for training in a manner similar to the three-year courses, in order to obtain a professional diploma (four-year);
- apply for a transfer to the fourth year in the courses of Professional Institutes for secondary school graduation.
