Selection Procedure - Master Executive INPS 2022-2023

Purposes

The aim of the Master is to analyze the main legal institutions related to anti-corruption legislation, subject of national and international debate; still causing the greatest social alarm and posing increasingly complex problems from both a preventive and repressive point of view. The italian legislature has attempted to strengthen and modernize said phenomena since Law No. 190/2012.

In particular, the objective of the learning pathway is the theoretical-practical study of the aforementioned legislation from an international, criminal and administrative point of view, with the aim to train apical figures with high specialized competence, called upon to serve, with roles of responsibility, the Public Administration and the public institutions to which the norm expressly addresses.

In this view, the course will devote particular attention to the main legal institutions related to the aforementioned Law 190/2012 and its implementing decrees:

1. the national legislation on anticorruption (L. n. 190/2012 and subsequent amendments);
2. offences against the Public Administration, with particular reference to practical cases and the most recent case law;
3. The legal model of the P.A. and the new administrative transparency, with particular reference to the normative and jurisprudential evolution of the right of access to documents.    

Within this context the course will focus on the technical and operational study of the New Public Procurement Code (D.Lgs. n. 36/2023), highlighting, within a broader case law and classroom solution of practical cases, the individual profiles of criminal, civil and administrative liability of operators in the sector, together with the critical issues related to awarding procedures. 

The lessons will be carried out at the premises of the university with the possibility of remote connection, in order to facilitate the integration of the Master's course with the candidates' work activities (the presential lessons are scheduled on alternating weekends; on Saturdays and Sundays). 

The course will devote particular attention to the innovative methodology of didactic activity, thus granting a technical and operational knowledge in the field, through the constant submission and solution of practical cases, also on the basis of the most relevant case law decisions. During the lessons, the candidates will be called upon to carry out written exercises, also in groups, on cases considered to be of interest.

The study of the topics will be facilitated by the use of summary slides, divided into thematic areas.

The course will feature the distribution of teaching material (regulations, articles of doctrine, judgments) in the classroom and the assistance of a classroom tutor.

Target students and Career Opportunities

In ragione dell’altissimo grado di specializzazione e di dettaglio dell’intero percorso formativo, oltre che dei docenti incaricati dei singoli insegnamenti, il Master mira a formare figure apicali della Pubblica Amministrazione di grande competenza specialistica, a supporto nelle azioni di contrasto dei fenomeni corruttivi, oltre a tecnici e operatori delle procedure di affidamenti e dei contratti pubblici.

Due to the very high degree of specialisation and detail of the entire training course, as well as of the lecturers in charge of the individual courses, the Master's course aims to train highly specialised senior figures in the Public Administration to support actions to counteract the phenomenon of corruption, as well as technicians and operators expert in procurement procedures and public contracts.
