Click here to download the Decree of the National Council of Social Assistants

ICOTEA is accredited by the National Council of Social Assistants as an institution authorized to provide ongoing training courses for social assistants to improve their expertise and skills. Other agreements with several Italian regions such as Lombardy, Emilia Romagna and Sicily have recognized the Postgraduate Course for Family Mediator of Icotea as valid for issuing training credits for social assistants enrolled in the register.

Since January 1, 2014 all members of professional orders such as social assistants have the obligation to update and take part in training events related to their activity. Our training courses for social assistants, therefore, are a valuable opportunity to fulfill this obligation, with the convenience of an e-learning platform, which allows distance participation in postgraduate and advanced training courses, and a consequent saving of time and money.

Here all the courses for Social Assistants:

Post-graduate course in Special Educational Needs;
Post-graduate course in criminal, juvenile, family and social mediation;
Specialisation course in ABA/SEN/SLD;
Post-graduate course in Family Mediation;
Cultural/Intercultural Mediator Course;
Course for Professional ethics for Social Assistants;
Post-graduate course in Specific Learning Disability.

As you can imagine, above all there is the Professional ethics Course for Social Assistants which allows to earn 15 PTC for the professional updating of these professionals. In particular, this course aims to improve their decision-making process and to raise awarness about rights and duties and provides competences concerning the major references to the legislation.
