Some tips for building your professional project

Get to know yourself

Your path essentially starts with you. When entering the world of work you must first know yourself, be able to clearly define what your professional goals, your aspirations are, be aware of what knowledge you already have, what skills you can invest in, how and where you are available to work.

The first things to pack in your suitcase are:

• your goals: your aspirations, your desired profession, which activities you would like to do and in which field
• your educational background: your educational qualifications, your qualifications, but also the experience and skills you have acquired over the years.

You want to clarify your ideas? To start building your professional project, we advise you to fill in the Scheda Progetto Professionale.

Get to know the world of work

In order to construct a realistic professional project, in addition to getting to know yourself, you need to get to know the world of work, the professions most in demand, and understand what knowledge and skills you need to have in order to work in your chosen field and activity.

Here are some links that may help you:

• Atlas of Jobs and Qualifications: detailed map of jobs and qualifications.
• ISTAT's Classification of Occupations: reconciles existing occupations in the labour market into occupational clusters, useful for statistical and administrative data on occupations.
• AlmaLaurea occupational survey: a tool that investigates the educational and occupational condition of graduates after one, three and five years from graduation, investigates labour market prospects and the relations between university studies and job opportunities.
• ISFOL - Professions, occupations, needs: knowledge, skills, aptitudes and much more information.
• Professional Associations: for information on regulated professions, find the addresses of the National and Liguria Professional Associations.
• Ligurian Directory of Professional Figures: it collects professional figures, organised by competences.
