Let’s figure out hundreds of students, coming from the most prestigious universities and high schools of Rome and Florence, investing in their human and professional growth in order to gain a place for their future among “the biggest of the world”: Welcome to the Consules world. Consules isn’t only an Association, it is a life style, a ship leading their passengers to discover new worlds and new experiences thanks to an international, alternative and multifaceted education. Our clients are also our members because they share with us a big aim: becoming citizens of tomorrow! Education is essential to get a brilliant career in the international sector. Consules implements and enriches the theoretical basis of our universities with practical and exciting experiences that allow our students to get the better of their colleagues from USA, Europe and Asia. Actually for the first time in 2007 the students, all trained and leaded by Consules, gained prestigious recognitions in the main diplomatic models in the world: Model United Nations. These initiatives, that gather up thousands among the best students in the world thanks to the involvement of the United Nations Department of General Culture and Universities like Harvard, for the first time in eighty years, rewarded the delegations of students coming from LUISS Guido Carli University of Rome, University “Roma tre”, University of Florence and the High School “Convitto Nazionale” of Rome, all leaded by Consules, for the excellence of the job done.
