STePS pioneers approaches to formal and non-formal learning to enable personal growth as well as
inclusive and sustainable change in organisations and territories. To this purpose STePS elaborates and manages demand-driven projects aiming at the empowerment of individuals through personalised, collaborative and participative forms of learning. We favour equitable learning opportunities by using museum, libraries, theatres, gardens and even supermarkets as alternative learning environments but we do not renounce fundamental activities like proper training need analysis, assessment and validation of competence. STEPS is a recently born (2013) company which puts at disposal the skills of a group of experts with many years of experience. STePS regularly cooperates with the Department of Agricultural Sciences (DipSA) of the University of Bologna – Alma Mater Studiorum and more specifically with the Research Center in Urban Environment for Agriculture and Biodiversity (RESCUE-AB) and its network of SMEs, associations and local authorities in several local and regional projects for the promotion of urban horticulture as a tool for social inclusion and education. Within this contexts STEPS tasks are related to evaluation and monitoring, project planning and organisation of events and courses.
