For Italian high school students, PCTO (Pathways for Transversal Skills and Orientation / Percorsi per le Competenze Trasversali e per l’Orientamento) is a mandatory part of the curriculum. It requires students to complete orientation, skills training, or workplace experiences to prepare for their future careers.
At the Salone dello Studente, this requirement becomes easier and more valuable. Thanks to BBadges by LutinX, student participation is instantly certified with a blockchain-verified digital credential, valid as PCTO credit, accepted by schools, and permanently stored in a digital portfolio.
PCTO, formerly known as “school-work alternation / alternanza scuola-lavoro”, integrates education with real-world experiences. Students must complete a minimum number of hours to graduate, and activities can include orientation events, internships, or professional workshops.
Traditionally, proof of participation was provided through paper certificates or signed attendance sheets — systems that are time-consuming and easy to lose.
With BBadges, this process becomes instant, digital, and secure.
General Participation: Attending the fair grants students up to 15 hours of PCTO credits, in line with MIUR directives.
Sentieri delle Professioni: Participation in these workshops is valid for up to 2 PCTO hours.
👉 Both activities are certified through blockchain-based BBadges, ensuring secure, transparent, and verifiable recognition.

Unlike paper certificates, BBadges are:

Globally verifiable: schools, universities, or employers can check them instantly.
Permanent: they remain accessible in the student’s digital account.
This makes PCTO recognition not only formal, but credible and future-proof.
With BBadges at the Salone dello Studente, PCTO recognition becomes instant, verifiable, and transparent. Students can earn up to 15 PCTO hours for attending the fair and 2 hours for Sentieri delle Professioni.
Every BBadge is blockchain-verified, serving as both an official school document (absence justification + credits) and a professional credential.
