The training path has a total duration of 242 hours, including 146 hours of classroom lessons and 96 hours of internship at companies in the sector. Lessons will be held from Monday to Friday, with a maximum of 8 hours per day, within a time slot between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM. Mandatory attendance is 70% of the total hours, with at least 50% of the internship hours.

At the end of the course, participants will acquire methods and techniques for the installation and maintenance of electronic systems and computer networks, including environmental home automation, and for the configuration of audio-video systems.
Access Requirements and Beneficiaries
The minimum access requirements include reaching 16 years of age with the fulfilment of compulsory education and training (three-year leFP qualification) or reaching 18 years of age. For foreign citizens, knowledge of the Italian language at level A2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is required.
The course is open to various categories of beneficiaries, including:

- Recipients of the “Reddito di cittadinanza” (Citizenship Income)
- Fragile or vulnerable workers (NEET young people under 30, women in disadvantaged conditions, people with disabilities, mature workers aged 55 and over)
- Unemployed individuals without income support (unemployed for at least six months, other workers with fewer employment opportunities, self-employed workers who cease activity or have very low incomes)
- Workers with very low incomes (the so-called working poor)
Recognition of incoming credits is permitted upon application by candidates, according to the procedures defined by DGR 251/2023, provided that the request is submitted before or in the initial phase of the course.
Attendance Allowance and Final Certification
For unemployed individuals over 55 years of age (at the time of enrolment), an attendance allowance of €3.50 per hour is provided (calculated on classroom and synchronous FAD hours). This allowance is disbursed at the end of the project and is limited to a maximum of €250 for the first course attended only. Recipients of the “Reddito di cittadinanza” and beneficiaries of social safety nets are excluded from the allowance. The allowance will be paid once the catalogue courses are completed and the list of eligible participants is defined, which may occur sometime after the end of the course.
The executing body for the course is FORMIMPRESA, and lessons will be held at their premises in via Sicilia n° 27 in Monteriggioni (SI) and via C. Pisacane n° 3 in Siena.
At the end of the course, intermediate learning verification tests and a final exam consisting of a written test, a technical-practical test, and an individual interview are planned. Access to the final exam is granted to participants who have attended at least 70% of the total course hours, with at least 50% of the internship hours.
The final certification will be a Certificate of Competence for UC 1811 and UC 1815. For students who do not pass the exam or who interrupt the course, a declaration of learning will be issued, in accordance with DGR 251/2023, including a specific declaration for the DigComp UF.
Enrolment
Enrollment in the course takes place in two phases:
- Phase 1 – Access to the GOL Program: interested individuals must register for the GOL program exclusively at the Employment Centres in the Tuscan territory. Here, based on the results of the orientation, beneficiaries will be directed towards specific paths, such as Upskilling or Reskilling measures.
- Phase 2 – Course Enrolment: once directed towards the measures, beneficiaries can enrol in the course by visiting an Employment Centre or a Job Agency.
This course represents a significant opportunity for those who wish to acquire specialized skills in the installation and maintenance of electronic systems, fostering employability in the electrical-electronic-IT sector.
