The Officina – New Jobs Workshop opens the week with the All4All track. The young men and women who have answered the  Call4Youth have chosen to attend all the labs on offer (Fab Lab, Game Lab, Immersive Lab and Video Lab) from Monday to Friday for a total of 22 hours (4 hours motivational course, 4 hours in each lab and 2 final re-evaluation hours).

The students will attend a different lab every day to complete the “immersive” track in emerging digital market technology in the course of one week.

There will be over 80 participants this week, half of which are currently unemployed and hold a high school diploma, while only 30% has a university degree. The other half includes students from the fourth and fifth year at the IIS Maffeo Pantaleoni School in Frascati.

This week, activities at the Officina will be managed by designer Luca Frogheri (Fab Lab); experts from the Italian Videogame Association (Game Lab); immersive experience designer Domenico Zungri (Immersive Lab) and professionals from Animatika (Video Lab). [Also see: Who Are the Coaches?]
