A brief presentation about
My organization - my job

3. Torino

4. ENGIM (Ente Nazionale Giuseppini del
Murialdo) is a non-profit vocational training
organization.
ENGIM was created to continue the many
activities organised for young people and
workers in the second half of the 19th century
by St. Leonardo Murialdo (1828-1900).
ENGIM organises training and guidance
activities in Italy and abroad for young people
and workers, to develop their vocational skills
and their personal and social advancement.

5. In Italy, ENGIM manages 23
Training Centres and one Study
Centre. It has four operational centres
in Piedmont which offer training and
guidance services in the fields of
industry and craftwork, the service
industry and ICT, catering/bar and
health care. Engim has in our centre
only around 50 employees full time
and around 700 learners.

6. ENGIM collaborates closely all over the territory with local authorities, companies,
schools and universities, the welfare services and employment centres, to plan
training programmes that meet the users’ expectations and the needs of the
business world. It designs and implements activities financed by the regional and
provincial authorities, and by the European Social Fund. On the request of
companies/organisations/associations, it organises refresher, retraining and
continuous training courses.
ENGIM is approved by the Piedmont Regional Government as both a training and a
guidance centre. The ENGIM Quality Management System has also received UNI
EN ISO 9001:2000 certification.
My team in Engim is involved in business and management courses in the field of
Leadership, effective communication, project management, work groups
management, environment, computer science (ICT and Web2.0)
