Italy Work Permit Training

Course Description

Italy's work permit system has one distinctive feature that makes it unlike almost any other country in the world: the Decreto Flussi. Every year (or sometimes every few months), the Italian government opens a fixed number of work permit slots and when they open, the applications flood in within hours. Understanding this system, knowing how to prepare in advance, and knowing what to do after a slot is granted is the difference between getting your client to Italy or watching the quota close before they apply. This course teaches you all of it.
