Steps for Schools

https://www.uniupo.it/en/orientation/projects-schools/transferable-skills-and-careers-guidance/steps-schools

Schools interested in activating a PCTO project must:

  1. Sign an Agreement with the University (one-year duration, automatically renewable), which applies to all PCTOs activated by the school with UPO. The pre-prepared agreement form provided by the University must be used (to be requested via email to pcto@uniupo.it) , signed with digital signature (compulsory for public organisations according to current law) and sent by PEC (registered email) with a cover letter / mail to: protocollo@pec.uniupo.it (*).
  2. Consult the Catalogue of Initiatives for Transferable skills and careers guidance to: 
    • Identify the projects included with “open enrolment”
    • Contact the university tutor who acts as the project representative for co-planning of activity/information on the possibility of striking an agreement
    • When the Tutor confirms it is possible to begin an activity, the School must contact the Administrative representative  at the university department in question, to begin the administrative procedure with the relevant forms and documents (*).
  3. Select the most motivated students and propose the project activity to them.
  4. Complete the "Student’s Training Agreement", agreed with the university tutor; insert the student’s details and data referring to the project published in the UPO catalogue, have the School’s legal representative sign it, and deliver it to the university tutor.
  5. Deliver the “Register of presences” to the student.

 

At the end of the project:

  •  Ask the student to complete the survey on the activity carried out, and store it
  •  Receive the student file from the University, with documents completed during the PCTO experience:
  • Educational Agreement
  • Safety form
  • Register of presences
  • Student assessment card completed by tutor

N.B.(*)

  • DIGITAL SIGNATURE: for private institutes that cannot provide a digital signature, send two paper copies of the agreement (both signed as originals) to: Università del Piemonte Orientale - Servizio Orientamento, Via Duomo 6, 13100 Vercelli. Contact pcto@uniupo.it 
  • FORMS: to participate in the initiatives included in the UPO catalogue, it is essential for the School to use the University’s Agreement form and documents. All necessary forms can be acquired by contacting the university tutor.
