What ITCILO does

ITCILO (International Training Centre of the ILO) is the official training arm of the International Labour Organization, a United Nations specialized agency. Founded in 1964 and headquartered at the UN Campus in Turin, Italy, the organization delivers capacity-building programs for governments, employer and worker organizations, UN agencies, NGOs, and individual professionals across 100+ countries. Its core product is the eCampus Moodle-based learning management system, which supports blended learning through online modules, mobile applications (iOS and Android), virtual reality training environments, gamified learning activities, and digital credentialing with shareable badges. The Turin School of Development, a sub-brand affiliated with the University of Turin and Politecnico di Torino, offers First Level Master's degree programs in fields such as occupational safety and health, management of development, international trade law, social innovation, and technology and public policy, each priced at €9,900 and delivered in a blended format combining 4-5 months of e-learning with 1-3 months of residential study in Turin.

ITCILO's business model combines multiple revenue streams: Master's program tuition, open-enrollment course fees, tailored/corporate training contracts with governments and institutions, advisory and consulting services, events hosting at the Turin campus, and accommodation revenue from 280+ on-campus dormitories. Partial scholarships are available for participants from developing countries. The go-to-market is sales-led, leveraging direct website enrollment, UN/ILO network referrals, and academic partnerships for global participant acquisition. The organization maintains ISO 27001 certification (held continuously since 2016) and reports an alumni network of 2,900+ professionals from 100+ countries. It is governed as a UN entity under an agreement between the ILO and the Italian government, with Christophe Perrin serving as Director, and is not privately held, venture-backed, or publicly traded.
