Beschreibung der Einrichtung

ITET “G. Salvemini” is a technical and technological upper secondary school dedicated to "Gaetano Salvemini", an important historian, politician and journalist from Molfetta (1873-1957).
The school is attended by about 680 students coming from Molfetta and its surrounding towns. It has also evening courses for adults and, from many years, it has been offering various extracurricular activities both to our students, to the families and to the public.
Our courses are closely interwoven not only with the town economy but also with the surrounding towns' systems as trade, the building sector and tourism are strategic economic activities in this area. ITET Salvemini Institute offers the following courses: Business Information Technological Systems (for students who want to acquire specific skills in using information technologies for administrative purposes), Administration, Finance and Marketing, Tourism and finally Building Crafts, Environment and Territory.
Our didactic plan aims at matching the need of giving technical and technological skills with the need of helping students to become good citizens, in other words to help students to become not only good technicians but also good (wo)men, who are aware of social problems and who have a proper civic consciousness.
For reaching this objective our extracurricular activities are strongly integrated in the school didactic plan and make up the test-bench to experiment innovation and methods. Making students aware of social issues is also a way to make them feel part of a caring community and to reduce school dropouts. Projects such as volunteering on a European scale, the use of alternative energies, waste recycling, journalism, sailing, scuba-diving, theatre, popular dances, creative music, home design and clothes creative graphics have then often been characterizing the school extracurricular offer.
Other projects are meant to give professional skills in the field of surveying, trade and commerce and tourism. The teachers of the Building crafts course organize projects for building with eco-materials, to respect safety laws in the building site, to teach art history or teach restoration and renovation techniques, to draw with Auto CAD and others software with BIM technology.
The teachers of the tourism course organize course for tour escorts or tourist guides.
