The Sardinia Region has introduced several economic initiatives aimed at vocational training and industrial development.

In late September 2026, the Regional Labor Department launched a 4 million euro program to train aircraft maintenance technicians. Managed by ASPAL, the initiative provides vouchers of up to 30,000 euros to help unemployed residents aged 18 to 31 obtain European-recognized licenses, covering tuition and related travel or accommodation costs.

Following this, the Regional Department of Industry announced a 19 million euro allocation to support municipal industrial areas. Distributed between 2026 and 2028, these funds are designated for creating new production settlement plans, expanding existing ones, and developing infrastructure to host small-scale artisanal businesses and local production units.
