There are a lot of entries in IATE, which lead to "advanced training course for professionals", maybe that is the one...

neutral  Alessandra Renna: In Italy, specialization course means "corso di specializzazione" that is differente from "corso di perfezionamento"
4 hrs
  -> yes, that is true, but since "perfectionistic course" does not exist in English, I though that could be an option (*_*)
agree  Mihaela Petrican: "advanced training course" could be a valid choice, indeed :)
5 hrs
  -> thanks (to IATE) :)
