The Italian school system provides a wide choice
of educational offers.
In the last five years the system has been
heavily modified in the educational,
methodological and organizational aspects.
In constant dialogue with the other European
countries, the attempt has been to reach a shared
education and training system.

After the first cycle of education, the Italian
student can choose between
five-years path (which includes High Schools and
Industrial Technical Institutes)
or the three-years course (the Vocational
Training)

Italian students fulfill compulsory education at
16 and training requirement at 18, with the
option to choose which path of education and
training is more suited to their skills, personal
abilities and future projects.

Unlike High Schools, Technical Institutes and
Vocational Training Centers aim to a diploma of
higher education which can ensure the access to
University or to Higher Technical Education or to
employment.
8
The identity of the Technical Institutes is
characterized by a strong scientific and
technological cultural basis in line with the
European guidelines. This identity is expressed
by a limited number of wide addresses that
relate to key areas of the economic and
productive development of the country
(Administration, Finance and Marketing, Tourism,
Mechanical, Mechatronics and Energy,
Transportation, Electronics, Information and
Communication Technology, Design and
Communication, Chemistry, Materials and
Biotechnology, Fashion System, Agribusiness,
Environment and Territory).
9
The courses of the Technical Institutes are
articulated into two areas general education and
address field, for a comprehensive five-year path.
10
The general education reinforces the compulsory
education, through the development of the axis of
language, mathematics, science-technology and
social-history.
11
The address area aims to give theoretical
knowledge and application expendable in various
contexts of life, together with cognitive skills
which enable to solve problems.
12
The identity of the Vocational Training Centers
is characterized by the integration of a solid
general education with the professional culture.
It takes three years and is divided into 21
specificities (e.g. footwear, chemical
products and clothing operator building,
mechanical and graphic operator electrical
systems, administrative and food-processing
expert).
13
The address area, together with the general area,
provides the student with the necessary skills
expendable in the various work and life contexts,
giving the ability to take autonomous
responsibility during the production processes
and services.
14
Specifically, the training offered by the
Salesian Institute San Marco is divided into two
paths the Industrial Technical Institute for
the graphic arts and communication (ITI) and the
Vocational Training Centre (CFP) that offers four
types of courses graphics, with the two
options of press and prepress operator, mechanics
and electrotechnics.
15
The course at ITI San Marco spreads over five
years and is divided into two years of general
education and three years of address area.
At the end of the training in graphic arts and
communication the student has acquired the
following capabilities
Design and manufacture communication products
delivered through different channels, choosing
tools and materials in relation to contexts of
use and production techniques Use dedicated
computer packages Design and manage the graphics
and multimedia communication Design, create and
publish contents on the web Manage projects and
processes in accordance to the procedures and
standards set by the quality and safety
management of the corporate systems Analyze and
monitor the needs of the reference market Teamwork
16
The course at CFP San Marco, graphics address,
spread over three years and ends with the
attainment of the professional qualification in
Press Operator or Prepress Operator. Besides
entering the job world, students can move to the
channel of technical education and complete their
training with the five-year diploma and access to
higher education.
17
At the end of the training the press and prepress
operator has acquired the following
capabilities Use graphics programs for drawing,
design and layout Evaluate the photographic
quality of reproductions, to perform color
correctionsPreparing the printing machine to
perform the printing and ensure their quality by
computerized equipmentWorking within the
finishing for the main processes of binding and
postpress
18
The education and training at the Salesian
Institute San Marco is enriched with the
organization and implementation of activities of
excellence that involve the students, the school
and the local companies Companies come to
school through meetings with corporate
experts Technical visits Internship School-work
alternance Extension courses Workshop Cultural
exchanges
19
In 2008 was born the three-year degree course in
Sciences and Techniques of Graphic
Communication. The two profiles created at the
end of this university course are advertising
and graphic Communication and institutional and
corporate Communication.
20
In 2010 is born the master-degree in Graphic
design and strategic communication. The course,
lasting two years, completes the first-level
degree program.
21
The charisma that supports and guides all
educational choices proposed by the San Marco
institute is that of Saint John Bosco, founder
of the Salesian Congregation to aim on the
formation of the whole person, to create honest
citizens and good Christians, in the belief that
the time invested to educate and bring up young
people is never lost time!
