Addestramento

English translation: Training

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:Addestramento
English translation:Training

Italian term or phrase: Addestramento
I need help with these two sentences:

Formazione: attività di illustrazione, informazione o insegnamento orientata ad aumentare il livello di cultura e di professionalità del personale nell'ambito delle attività di competenza.

Addestramento- attività di insegnamento teorico e/o pratico, orientata a far apprendere le modalità di esecuzione di una specifica attività.

It's part of a corporate training procedure. They use both terms in the text, so i need to find two translations. I guess training could be used for one....

Any suggestions???

Thanks!

Explanation:
ISO 9001
4.18. Training
.... Personnel performing specific assigned tasks shall be qualified on the basis of appropriate education, training and/or experience, as required.

Userei quindi, come suggerito, i due termini: "Education" "Training"

agree  Derek Smith: Yeah, I had the same problem a while back and found that "addestramento" was called "on the job" training while "formazione" was more like "theory/classroom training". Unfortunately I can't remember where I got the info... D
