Learning, training systems and training assessment

In line with its identity as a bridge building organization, over the years ISTUD has focused on the role of private sector businesses in this field. Relationships with the community, with the local authorities and government agencies have been reinforced through projects and initiatives intended, on the one hand, to help companies to maintain a “community presence” and develop an awareness of their social impact, and, on the other, to help government bodies to "interpret" and to exploit to the full the contribution that the private business sector can offer.

This has led to the development of a “value based” perception of the business world and its relationship with the government actors with whom, increasingly, it finds itself in interaction and in dialogue. This new concept has resulted in a series of initiatives that can be combined and adapted for a wide range of purposes and situations.

As regards the “social role " of corporations, the ISTUD Foundation is currently working on behalf of the major national and international government agencies on a detailed study of some issues that are of crucial importance to the business sector and to government. These issues include community responsibility, new technologies and innovation, in-training and knowledge within the company, diversity and diversity management, assessment. One important issue that cuts across a number of fields is “assessment”, which can refer either to the evaluation of training programmes or to the evaluation of the effectiveness of government policies.
