  Abstract: Paolo Federighi
  The aim of this paper is to put representation labour market has about profes-sions in education and training domains in order. The attempt is to adapt the sys-tem of classification by ISTAT to the re-organisation of all professions working to achieve learning outcomes within a framework that group them in, in relation to analogies of processes they control and homogeneous organizational skills, com-petences and behaviours.Moreover we also analyse the typology of providers where these professions are employed in order to weight their role within the training market. Lastly the model of classification is applied to the category of professionals that are work-ing in the field of continuing training in organisations.

  Abstract: Vanna Boffo
  The theme at the center of the article concerns the relationship between training and work and, consequently, a renewal of the meaning of professional epistemology within the teaching courses of the pedagogical area. The main research question is inherent in how to investigate and construct an epistemology for the educational and training professions. The adoption of the TECO-D matrix is proposed for educational-training skills, highlighting its application to the training offer proposed by the CdS LM 57 & 85 of the University of Florence.The matrix is investigated through the application to the SUA form, offering demonstration of the relationship between the definition of a professional epistemology and skills to be used for educational and training professions.

Finally, the article illustrates the functions and main competences needed to carry out the pedagogical coordination profession, highlighting the impact of its work in terms of accessi-bility and quality.

  Abstract: Giovanna del Gobbo
  Conversion and reorganization of economic processes (greening) and a widespread responsibility, including individual one, with respect to the environment and territory in direction of a "green society" as well as a "green economy", seems to be able to open up a potential labour opportunity for environmental sustainability education professionals. To date professional units operating in education, training and environmental awareness activities are various. The activities are mostly carried out by professionals operating in different fields and sectors (public utilities, tourism, cultural services, hiking, protection of environmental heritage, agriculture, education and instruction, etc.) and so they define a family with outlines indistinct, without a univocal definition of roles, areas of activity, skills and training paths. This contribution intends to offer a glance into a problem that necessarily requires a systemic approach and that urges pedagogical reflection on the environment to a stronger and more structured dialogue with the labour market to guarantee professionalization processes whose social and economic usefulness seems indisputable.

  Abstract: Francesca Torlone
  Professional identity of pedagogical legal officer has been affected by transformations occurred over time in the culture of penal and penitentiary system. The transition towards a "re-educating" penitentiary system in the second post-war period highlighted a new identity, a new role that are not always accompanied by new awareness and educational practices. The paper intends to redefine the identity of the role pedagogical legal officer has within the professions working in the education and training domains. Elements of representations by the organizational actors as well as identity perspectives are used for this purpose. They both are analysed in relation to the way every prison institution makes sense of the work contents of the pedagogical legal officer thanks to the devices in use and to the way it nourishes the culture of educational role in prison. Lastly the pedagogical legal officer is seen as the "expert of the re-educational treatment" in relation to his/her ability to manage his/her job in the educational perspective and the ability to construct the sense of his/her professional role autonomously.

  Abstract: Francesco De Maria
  The role of education and training professions in the international cooperation is the object of this paper. The aim is to investigate how to combine Human Development with Learning in this field of work. It is not an easy task as regulations, job opportunities connected to higher education programmes, the labour market as well as the professional units and roles are still not clear and not properly defined. International solidarity needs human resources adequately professionalised; the educational and training dimensions are implicitly and transversally embedded in the development actions and cannot be considered relevant only in educational projects. This paper deals with these challenges and can be deemed an attempt to define productive processes, areas of activities, educational competences that are required to the Human Development Operators by referring to different disciplinary areas. It implies to consider the professional role of educators and trainers working in the international cooperation.

  Abstract: Isabella Degli Esposti
  For some years now, Coach has fully entered organizations. Due to the complexity we actually are facing also this professional role needs to cover a more strategic perspective in terms of being able to read the assumptions, the causal connections between effectiveness, but also excellence, and mentality that makes them possible. Therefore, the goal is to shift the axis of the coaching action from behaviors to the individuals’ mindset. This is required in order to make the growth process undertaken really effective and long-lasting. This in why we talk about Mindset Coach.

  Abstract: Daniela Frison
  The paper reflects on changes and development of the trainer profession and on variability and multidimensionality of roles, tasks and contexts in which trainers work nowadays. A literature overview and interviews with key informants support the exploration of the profession’s trends over the last five years. In conclusion, professional development trajectories are identified alongside spaces and needs for in-depth analysis related to three emerging key dimensions: the movement from a teaching perspective to a learning perspective, the importance of methodological improvement and the need of adopting methods related to the non-formal sector and to innovation processes.

  Abstract: Fabio Togni
  The essay, starting from the Professional Bio diffusion, with a pedagogical semiotics perspective, investigates the formative value of narration, highlighting its technical-formal aspects, its expedients and its main schemes. These three elements are analyzed to undeline the Narrative Skills profile of these authors’ texts, of those who are called to evaluate them and, finally, of those who have training tasks in professional contexts and want to use narrative strategies. In conclusion, a tool is proposed for the evaluation of narrative competence in all contexts in which it manifests itself.

  Abstract: Glenda Galeotti
  The paper proposes a reflection on adult education and its capacity to answer to the need of innovation that crosscuts our society. In a context of health crisis that is exacerbating the inadequacy of traditional organizational and social structures, the idea of social innovation coincides with that of "transformation", as a change of perspective and a pillar for building the future by a more useful "connection" between citizens, researchers, companies and governments. Considering adult education an enabling factor different types of innovation - technological, organizational or socio-cultural - means to adopt a human-centred perspective for modifying, reproducing and creating structural and socio-cultural conditions, thanks to inclusive and collaborative processes and practices and to improved thinking and action capabilities.

  Abstract: Gabriella Campanile
  In this paper we refer to the professional role of the learning processes’ consultant within organizations (CPAO). Nowadays this role is not clearly codified yet although widely spread in the labour market, mainly in small and medium-sized organizations. Considering the changes in structure and scenario that companies are required to accomplish on a short and medium term it is necessary to redefine CPAO’ functions and skills. If we take the perspective view both of role and exogeneous factors, we can try to redefine the CPAO profession in the industry 4.0 era. In this paper we will try to answer these questions: - Which are the skills to be possessed by CPAO to support the digital and technological transformation processes organizations are required to deal with' - Which role CPAO plays within organizations that are having profound technological and digital transformations' This paper intends to provide some preliminary attempts to define a new vision and goal of the CPAO professional role that can contribute to identify the value CPAO can provide in the new scenario.

  Abstract: Paolo Gasca
  Today we are fighting a war against an invisible enemy, which has had considerably an impact not only on everyone’s family and social dimension, but also on the working sphere. The psychological agreement, which links individuals and organizations, has been overturned and redesigned, leaving behind values such as "security" and "belonging". What is on the horizon is a completely new future, in which concepts of "professional habitat" and "work-life balance" take on new meaning. It is necessary to rediscover the relationship between company and people, to give life to a new "corporate humanism", that recovers the centrality of the person and allows the individual to express himself and all his potential. How' Through maieutic methods capable of developing new individual skills and qualities, and accompanying people in an inescapable professional and, above all, personal repositioning. It is necessary to move from the goal of managing to that of "caring2 for people by giving a new meaning, a new perspective to the psychological agreement. And this is where training professionals come into play, whose challenge is, today more than ever, to create a new management thinking, new ideas, and to support people in a path of growth, that allows them to confirm themselves as the true competitiveness differential.
