“Effective collaboration between the business world and the education system”

by admin

The bill approved in the Chamber brings together in a single organic text the requests of companies and social and political stakeholders, and is an excellent proposal. It could be improved by determining financial stabilization mechanisms through the effective overcoming of the call for applications in the public funding disbursement system and related parameters and by identifying concrete points of collaboration between ITS and universities (for example in the recognition of training credits for ITS graduates or in the reorientation of the so-called university dropouts.

Is the “war” between ITS and the university over?

From the business point of view, there is no reason for conflict between tertiary training channels. The opportunity we have is to identify the complementary elements to respond to the complexity that the labor market and companies face today, and which sees a clear indicator in the “mismatch” of skills. Companies are looking for both superior technicians, able to manage and oversee increasingly complex business processes, and graduates to develop and coordinate research and innovation projects. Hence the need to have a tertiary education system in which an academic and a professional segment coexist, avoiding overlaps, each
with its own specific identity, as well as in Germany, France
and Switzerland.

One last question. How to tell young people about the opportunity and the beauty of technical-scientific paths?

We live in a society where we deal with technology on a daily basis. The pandemic emergency has accelerated and amplified this dimension, and has brought science back to the center of the debate. Beauty lies in discovering and understanding what lies behind the technologies we use, as well as in seeking solutions for a more sustainable world: all this passes from an in-depth knowledge of the Stem disciplines, towards which we can now direct the study choices of young people. more than in the past. With an encouragement addressed in particular to the students, to consider Stem and Its studies as an opportunity for their future.
