nnovation Project Management (IPM) - 3rd Course

Itineraries is the name of a specialization course offered by SICC for young undergraduates and graduates, as well as practitioners and enthusiasts in the cosmetics industry who wish to broaden their knowledge and experience in study, technique, and/or practice.

In its new version, dedicated to Maria Ferrero, the course has changed its title to "Innovation Project Management Course" to better clarify its objectives.

Participants are given a briefing and, thanks to the experience of some of the most qualified tutors in Italy, they will have the opportunity to engage in both remote and in-person discussions and to work experimentally with the companies collaborating on the project, thus increasing their potential in the job market.

This is an integrated course, aimed at allowing participants, as protagonists in the work group, to experience the process of a development project as it occurs in a real company, addressing emerging and influential issues and problems before, during, and after the actual technical and formulation development.

The IPM 2026 Course will begin in March with an introductory seminar where the project brief will be delivered, and will conclude with a presentation by the project team at Making Cosmetics in November 2026.

For "Certified" Students, we have provided significantly reduced tuition fees compared to those already working in the sector. This is thanks to the Intercos Group, which has supported this initiative since this year. Universities interested in cosmetics will certainly be able to promote participation as a source of potential experimental theses. For young cosmetologists, this is an opportunity to gain a unique experience with a time commitment compatible with their work and/or professional activities.
