Training objectives
- Teaching is aimed at students who, once graduated, are interested in taking part in competitions for teaching positions in secondary school in the first and second level in the Competition Class A-46 (Scienze giuridico-economiche). The DM n. 616 (10.08.2017) provides that the graduate acquires 24 credits in the anthropo-psycho-pedagogical disciplines and in teaching methods.
