Dissemination Event in Italy – Bologna
DATE: 20th October, 2022 PLACE: International Building Exhibition, Bologna (Italy)
The event was organized on the occasion of the international construction, design, building and systems fair called SAIE (International Building Exhibition) which takes place in Bologna. Approximately 60 people participated in the seminar, including representatives of the construction schools participating in the Formedil system, representatives of the Labor Inspectorate and INAIL (National Institute for Insurance against Accidents at Work), entrepreneurs in the construction sector, social workers, representatives of public and local administration.
The objective of the seminar was to raise awareness of the project in a context such as that of the SAIE
which is one of the most important trade fairs in the construction sector. In the first part, the project, its objectives and its purpose were presented. An attempt was made to understand the new role of teachers based on observations of the work phases and the company context in such a way as to be able to design ad hoc training for both the foreman and the construction site manager.
It was then explained that all the project tools have already been shared and tested in all partner
countries. It was particularly important to underline the role that the employer, teacher and site
manager/team leader must have in this new training model. The employer must understand that
training has a central role in the growth of his organization, the teacher must be able to involve workers
during training and must be skilled in observation: he must not make the site manager feel under
scrutiny/ team leader. Workers in training must accept being observed and understand that training is
a springboard to improve their skills and have a more important role in the company.
