Associazione Formazione Professionale del Patronato San Vincenzo
The “Patronato San Vincenzo” was founded in Bergamo by Don Bepo Vavassori in 1927, with the aim of hosting young people and children in difficult economic and social conditions and of giving them professional and technical competences and abilities. This reality evolved in the actual association “Associazione formazione professionale del Patronato San Vincenzo” that offers training and educational services since 1956. The association considers continuing education as a fundamental and strategic resource for social and economic development of companies and it always looks for new formative and learning methods.
Its three offices, in Bergamo, Clusone and Endine, are recognised by “Regione Lombardia” and they work within its vocational training and lifelong learning projects framework. We also support young with social, economic and family problems at risk of exclusion by offering education path. In our institution they spend their days alongside with teachers and educators, they have the opportunity to learn the value of commitment, effort, perseverance and respect for the world.
In the office of Bergamo, in 2007 we founded the “Agenzia per il lavoro”, an agency offering services for the job seekers and unemployed, in order to help them to get in or to reintegrate in the job market and to reskill themselves, thanks to vocational training and career guidance courses. The Agency addresses immigrants, over fifty, disabled, young persons with a difficult background. We have also open “Agenzia per il Lavoro” in Brescia (Lombardy Region).
