How and when you should take a training course

Italian universities are often criticized because they do not properly train young people for the labor market. The university courses are accused to transmit only theoretical knowledge, for the most part useless, maybe surpassed for the labor market. But is also true that universities cannot take charge to provide the whole knowledge package to stude4nts and in the same time also train them for the job, because they already have to provide the theoretical basis for a lot of subjects and courses.

Nevertheless very often even enterprises are not willing to train their employers, they rather expect to hire young people, motivated, determined and who already have experience and the practical knowledge requested in the company’s field. This often is impossible, the university cannot takes charge to teach all this and a young person, recently graduated, maybe very motivated and efficient but could not possess the specific knowledge for the kind of work that he would like to do. This is nothing new and especially it is not an exception but rather the rule. To provide for this lacks, in the last years a lot of training schools have been created in Italy.

The training schools arise to provide young recent graduate people more specific knowledge on the job and on the practical aspect of this. Very often the organized courses include also a stage in Italy or abroad to complete the training path.

These schools also organize different kind of courses, on various subjects. One of the most requested is certainly the communication courses, every company, in fact, gives more and more importance to marketing and communication matters, this is just why training new experts in this field is a very profitable investment. These course, in addition, are not targeted just to recent graduates, but also to owners, managers, executives and staff members who want to improve their communication skills and acquire a better ability to establish good relationships.

In a society increasingly based on media, social networks, marketing and communication on and with every means, these kinds of courses are particularly important for all companies. But obviously the range of courses offered by these schools is much more wide and varied. It ranges from courses in public relations to those of management, from problem solving courses to recruitment. In sum almost all the company’s areas are covered. The lasting of the courses can vary from some days to some months, not counting the stage that is always a useful experience to see how it works but also to understand if we are choosing the more suitable sector for us.

The birth of these schools and these courses meets the direct needs of today’s labor market, but especially the companies’ needs that prefer to hire already trained staff, reducing time for learning the labor practice and speeding up time to totally apply the new hired person.
