The main purpose of the course is to provide the students with the knowledge and skills to understand the fundamentals and the main rules of the LAW TRAINING FOR THE EMPLOYABILITY. It is a specific branch of the legal system that refers to the “on the job” learning experiences. These experiences do not consist of employment relationships, and their main aim is to promote the knowledge and expertise acquired through the education process. Furthermore, they aim at helping the students in their job choices and facilitating their access to job positions. These aspects are crucial to carry out, with balance and competence, any of the professional activities at which this course prepares to (i.e. labour consultant, operator in a job centre, work agency, etc).

The programme of the course is based on the analysis and jurisprudential interpretation of the main training tools that encourage the employability – i.e. extracurricular internships, curricular internships, “school to work” apprenticeships, professional internships, special internships (such as the ones at the Courts). These will be examined in the light of the legislative framework.
