Contenuto

The professional traineeship is a training strategy that involves OneToOne coaching of the student with an experienced professional (Trainee Guide Nurse) in specific healthcare contexts, in order to learn the skills required by the professional profile.

Apprenticeship learning takes place through practical experimentation, the integration of theoretical-disciplinary knowledge with professional and organisational operational practice, contact with members of a specific professional group, starting with a reflection process guided by nurse guides and clinical tutors. 

The three-year traineeships must guarantee the training of a professional in possession of skills that are spendable in all care contexts, consistent with the curricular theoretical content.

Traineeships take place during the periods stipulated in the teaching schedule approved by the Course Council (Three-year Traineeship Schedule PDF).
