He/she is able to operate in numerous professional contexts relating to the knowledge of productions and culinary preparations, and in the promotion, communication and valorisation of food and Mediterranean culture, also using multimedia tools. The Higher technician will be able to manage innovative technological tools, plan and implement actions for the valorisation of the excellencies of the territory as an answer to new consumption models based on experiences, health and biodiversity recovery. Starting from the culture and the traditions of the territory and its products, thanks to the experience and multidisciplinary skills acquired in the fields of communication, marketing and business management, the higher technician will deal with the promotion of the territorial agri-food heritage, which is rich in biodiversity, by also interacting with the world of food and wine and that of hospitality. Special attention will be given to the promotion of a correct relationship between the product, the territory and the market, also facilitating and implementing internalization processes. The higher technician knows the production processes, and their socio-cultural, historical, economic, environmental value, and the links between food and territory.
