Finally! Now we could know for sure if a Professional has more or less professional competence. Just checking the number of CFP. We are living in a so strange country but also full of great imagination. Eventually we managed with the Regulation to update the professional competence published in the Official Bulletin of the Ministry of Justice.

It should be noted right away that we now have an exact definition of "Professional Competence": proven ability to apply knowledge, skills and behaviors acquired in the contexts of formal, non-formal or informal learning to achieve observable results in the exercise of the profession of engineer; being professional competence of an intellectual activity I expect that, before long, there will be the enactment of some other regulation that establishes what is that of a writer, of an artist, of a poet, etc. etc. Maybe I'm wrong, though, the professions mentioned are not fortunate enough to be cared for by specific professional associations. Then, no. There won’t be similar regulations, is certain. The most sympathetic aspect of the story is that the CFP may also be matured in advance and then be deducted each year. It makes a tucking, not more than 120 CFP however, and then for 4 years it is enough. If then, in these four years, a legislation revolution happens it won’t be necessary to upgrade because it has been already done for future reference. But how have we done up till now by exercising our profession with an outdated professional competence and no album where to attack the figurines, that, attention ,may also be equal. Yes they may. It's possible, too. The Regulation does not intervene in the upgrade and is just possible to participate in a recognized event to mature receivables. The fact that it is a duplicate that brings a different name is of very little importance. The most revolutionary aspect, then, is that their professional update can disregard in which branch, maybe for 30 years, you have gained experience and competence. You could be known for your ability and skill at any level, you could be a specialist, you have to update! Think about that until a few months ago only the reputation, that you built day by day, fighting on all fronts and getting results was apt to certify professional competence: barbaric method that had the great defect of having a customers suffrage and not from our category institutions. Fortunately, this problem is now gone. Did you win the 30 annual CFP? Yes. Well, you're up to date and relevant. But is the state exam still necessary to gain access to the profession? Is a freelancer, who plays a predominant independently intellectual activity, making choices of which is legally responsible? I do not know which is the answer, because it would seem that without the CFP the profession may be limited by sanctions that are not yet established in the Regulation. By now it is useless to work over 14 hours a day, competing in an increasingly complex and articulated market where, only thanks to a great skill, you can find space, where only the results certify if it you’ve done your job well, where you must conquer every space and fight a government increasingly averse and conservative, it is all over. Finally you can rest. No longer needed. Professional competence is not certified anymore by public recognition of customers and, even more, by the results that are achieved. Credits are enough. Another brilliant “Italiota“ example is creating centers of power and management. I keep on rather being, perplexed on the reason why no one does anything to fight this deregulation and liberalization in administrative matters that, emptying of content the duty to control public administration, increasingly expose us free professional to assume legal responsibilities that do not compete to us but to work. The extreme simplification of procedures has a very heavy counterpart for us that have to expose ourselves and continue to take convictions for the sole crime of working. I keep on being angry: - because you do not manage to have clear sector rules that does not force us to know more than a lawyer dealing with administrative; - because the urban autonomy of regions means that citizens do not enjoy the same constitutional rights; - because I can draw an energy certificate in Campania but not in Lombardy, seeing violated my constitutional rights and the legal system that regulates the exercise of the profession; but should not any professional order own an interest in these matters rather than play mainly training activities? Who has to deal with those basic issues?
