In the classrooms and labs, the Minister was able to observe the hallmarks of the educational offerings of the Salesians: innovation through multimedia didactics, which has led the school to become an "Apple Distinguished School" that sees digital tools applied to learning, but always with a strong focus on educating young people in their responsible use; first-level vocational training, which has always characterized the educational model of Don Bosco, but which has been able to renew itself to keep up with the times, also thanks to close collaboration with the territory and its companies; highly professionalizing higher education, capable of responding to the growing demand of companies for new and highly qualified skills, in light of the challenges related to Industry 4. 0 and digital transformation.
