Current student of a fantastic training course. One feels in the right place at the right time (at any age). Comfortable environment, qualified staff, professional and super helpful lecturers. Everything at hand to start or improve one's preparation in the subject. Besides the fact that it is in itself an experience that I strongly recommend, it could be the right bridge between study path and work environment.

I am currently taking the Training Course in Football Esport & Digital Business and I am finding it not only really very interesting, but also very specific and focused. The Coordinator is really helpful, in my specific case she is helping me a lot by supporting me with recordings and clarifications, given the dynamism of my work, which often sees me transferring from one office to another.The lecturers I have been dealing with are very knowledgeable and helpful, they allow you to interact and to be able to ask specific questions, also concerning work details, which does nots empre happen.Very satisfied!
