Wellbeing
ENGIM approaches beneficiaries’ well-being as a set of interconnected dimensions:
• developing high-quality educational pathways tailored to labour market needs and individual abilities, laying the foundations for growth;
• creating welcoming environments that promote trust, support and inclusion, enhancing emotional and transversal skills development;
• promoting social integration and workplace support, emphasising meaningful relationships within learning communities and the labour market.
The well-being of VET workers is equally crucial and multifaceted. For ENGIM, this includes a combination of professional aspects and personal dimensions, such as development opportunities, a national welfare system, continuous training and staff training sessions,focusing on job satisfaction and collegial relationships. This holistic approach recognises that the health of the VET system depends on supporting those who learn and those who teach, fostering environments for all to thrive and reach their full potential.
Global citizenship and migration
Guided by the principles of the Global Citizenship Charter, ENGIM promotes ethical and critical knowledge and Global Citizenship values through different approaches: educational workshops at all schools levels; youth participation in Universal Civil Service projects; adults and teachers training on educational strategies for global citizenship; and support for migrants integration. As part of ENGIM excellences, since 2005 the CSI (Solidarity and Inclusion Centre) in Rome assisted migrants with social and professional integration through career guidance, active job search, professional training, Italian language and culture courses, while offering legal advice and assistance with social services and administrative procedures.
International horizons
ENGIM embraces the challenge of an increasingly global and interconnected world, by broadening its internationalisation process to enhance professional training value and quality, and contribute significantly to national and international policies. The international dimension enables ENGIM to align with global standards, adopt innovative teaching methods, and ensure its study programmes meet international labour market requirements. Furthermore it promotes inclusive training systems, responsive to international workers’ and businesses’ needs.
The internationalisation process at ENGIM is implemented through:
• the Project Development Group’s activities, including: European projects and Erasmus+ transnational mobility;
• Cooperation and Development initiatives;
• participation in key European and international VET networks.
