All three attend the same school, the Istituto d’istruzione superiore E. Majorana in Palermo, participated in Project Meet No Neet and continue to grasp every opportunity to improve their work skills, including taking advantage of the Microsoft Certification voucher campaign. And all three obtained high scores.
Giovan Battista Patanè (19), who is currently taking his final exams, confesses: “I was extremely enthusiastic about this opportunity. I think having these certifications will help me find a good job, once I have finished studying. I want to take as many exams as possible to improve my knowledge.”
Alessandra Liga (20 anni) and Vincenzo Guccione (19) are also very motivated and want to perfect their computer skills. As a matter of fact, beyond motivated, they are enthusiastic and have already developed two websites internet:
