Its methodologies are based on the deep belief that knowledge and know‐how should develop together because this is the only way to offer young creative artists a complete training, a “Culture of the project” accompanying them for the rest of their lives. Thanks to this intuition and to the vivacious dynamism characterizing it, IED is today an international school that develops ideas and creativity, but also concreteness and professionalism, organizing post‐ diploma courses, masters and advanced training courses addressed to talented people of all ages and creative ambition.
