The International Labour Organization and the Italian Government established the International Training Centre in 1964 in Turin, Italy, as an advanced vocational training institute. It has since matured into a focal point for high-level in-service training. This takes place in Turin, in course participants’ home countries or via the Internet. The centre provides a range of training and related activities on what governments need to devise well-founded policy measures that tackle unemployment, under-employment, low productivity and poverty, notably in developing countries and transition economies.
