At the heart of ITS MAKER Academy’s educational offer there has always been a strong focus on building a solid bridge between training and employment, so that our students develop theoretical knowledge, practical skills and soft skills that are aligned with today’s job market.
The ITS MAKER Academy method
Teaching areas are focused on the most dynamic and innovative professional sectors in Emilia-Romagna, instructors come from local companies, learning is strongly practice-based and internships are mandatory to facilitate entry into the workplace. All these elements, embedded in every two-year course offered by ITS MAKER Academy, form a robust high-level training path that prepares students to enter the world of work.
It is therefore no coincidence, but rather a confirmation of the effectiveness of our method, that the most recent surveys on ITS MAKER Academy graduates’ career outcomes show extremely positive results.

The sample of respondents was highly representative of the overall cohort and, for the first time, the survey also included information on salary levels. Below are the most significant results.
