education

Education

Diploma in Computer Science achieved after attending the five-years Experimental Course (Computer Address) of the Technical Institute Angelo Secchi of Reggio Emilia.
During the studies I have deepened their knowledge of the French language, although not used in the workplace, I think to understand quite well.
As for the English language I had, for professional reasons, to understand at least the basics and now, after a specific training, I'm able to interact discreetly with my English colleagues.
