Introduction to the Program

A Postgraduate certificate in Ethics, a must for the philosopher who faces the challenge of teaching in the high school classroom"

##IMAGE##

In today's job market, professionals from other fields who complement their training with training in thinking and argumentation are highly valued and sought after. The philosopher's ability to see things from another point of view, to think, as the Anglo-Saxons would say, outside the box, is a fundamental asset in the world of work.

Personally, philosophy helps us to see things, as the great Spinoza said, subaespecie aeternitatis, that is, through a prism of eternity, knowing that in the great context of the world and the universe, actions are both relevant and insignificant
The role of philosophy as a consolatory discipline in the face of the evils and misfortunes in the world has always been fundamental, as it allows us to better understand our nature, our actions, our morality, and our being. In short, philosophy helps us to grow as people, to mature as individuals, to be more responsible citizens and to improve our work performance.

Throughout the program, students will have the opportunity to access the most important developments in philosophy applied to teaching. Guided by a very complete but very specific syllabus, students will acquire the knowledge and routines required to teach this subject or those applicable to other areas of life.

An opportunity created to add enormous value to students' CV.
