ISTITUTO EUROPEO
a position of excellence

ISTITUTO EUROPEO is almost finished with it's intense work for 2010.

It hasn't been an easy year for ISTITUTO EUROPEO because of the global
recession.  Nevertheless, the ISTITUTO EUROPEO has been innovative and
promoted programs whose aim is to improve quality and excellence, such
as with the Internship Program and the program for Entrepreneurial

Excellence in Italy and Italian Life & Culture.

The results we were able to attain were surprising and for the next
year we hope to double our performance.

The study of the Italian language seems to be stagnant, perhaps

because of the economic recession.  Apparently the traditional Italian
intensive courses are more attractive to a mature public coming from

the European and Japanese markets, and somewhat still appealing to
Australian and New Zealand youths.  Probably because in these
countries the recession hasn't reached the European peaks.

The "made in Italy" fascination is still the driving reason to study

Italian even though it is marking time.  We think that a new indexing
of the Italian service industry in the world market (rather than the
manufacturing industry, which is less important to the Italian economy
but nevertheless started the fascination) will give vitality to a new

Renaissance of the "made in Italy" brand.

Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year to everyone!
