Ongoing tutoring is designed to guide and assist students throughout their studies, to enable them to be active participants in the educational process and remove obstacles to course attendance. Ongoing tutoring is also carried out through initiatives tailored to the needs, aptitudes and requirements of individuals.
Tutoring services cooperate with bodies supporting the right to study and with student representatives, thus contributing to students' cultural needs and supporting their participation in university's activities.

The 1990 law that reformed university education made mentoring one of the main instruments of orientation, intending to reduce university dropout (Art. 13, Law No. 341 of November 19, 1990). Orientation in itinere (ongoing guidance) is carried out mainly within university departments.

Article 1 of Decree Law No. 105 of May 9, 2003 - urgent provisions for universities and research institutions - states that capable students enrolled in master's degree programs, specialization schools for the legal professions, specialization schools for secondary school teachers and PhD programs, who are beneficiaries of tutoring allowances also participate in tutoring activities.
Tutoring allowances are state-funded and are distributed annually to universities according to criteria determined by the relevant Ministry. The University of Parma identifies recipients through a public selection process held mostly by its Departments.

The Orientation and Job Placement Organizational Unit is entrusted with the "management of the Youth Fund to support Tutoring and Supplementary Educational Activities of Departments," as indicated in the University's Functional Chart of August 2021. The Unit is also in charge of calls related to projects in collaboration with ER.GO.
