Dual apprenticeship between the Andriano institute and Sfoglia Torino
Date of the event:
On 10 November 2026 the IIS «Pietro Andriano» of Castelnuovo Don Bosco hosted, in its own premises, a session of introductory interviews between some of its students and representatives of the food company Sfoglia Torino. The meeting marked the start of a first partnership between the school and the company as part of the dual apprenticeship, the scheme that lets secondary-school students alternate classroom lessons with work at a company, with the chance to earn the vocational school-leaving diploma during the work experience.[1]
The meeting
During the day, Sfoglia Torino representatives held selection interviews with the students involved, aimed at bringing new candidates into the dual apprenticeship scheme. It was the first agreement of any kind between the school and the local food company.[1]
The institute's other partnerships
Before the agreement with Sfoglia Torino, the IIS «Pietro Andriano» had already started six dual apprenticeship partnerships with local businesses, including Atla s.r.l., Casale Impianti S.r.l., Za.Ma. S.n.c., Meccanica S.R.L.S. and Polo Unico Progetti.[1]
Statements
The school's site manager, Silvia Tagliaferro, said that students taking part in the dual apprenticeship schemes combine the theoretical grounding gained at school with the professional attitude companies look for, standing out for their seriousness and motivation. Tagliaferro described the dual apprenticeship as a model that lets young people gain skills they can use in the job market, while letting local businesses invest directly in young people.[1]
