The IP Corporate Academy is the Group's main tool for building and disseminating skills. The Academy is located in two physical locations: the IP headquarters in Rome, on via Salaria, where it has a multimedia training room and an auditorium with over 110 seats; and the headquarters in Falconara Marittima, in a building entirely dedicated to training.
The IP Corporate Academy was the first company Academy to be accredited by the Marche Region as a training institution.
The Academy also uses an online training platform, which over the years has allowed it to expand its capacity for reaching increasingly large audiences, including service area managers, with agile and easy-to-use training content.
In 2025, the Corporate Academy consolidated its role as a centre for disseminating internal values and knowledge, thus evolving towards a model increasingly focused on enhancing people.
The acquisition of innovative knowledge, such as that required to address the energy transition, plays a strategic role in effectively managing change.
Personalized training programs aimed at developing internal skills are therefore essential for transforming current and future challenges into opportunities for lasting success, confirming the importance of investing in new skills as a driver of growth and corporate resilience.
