Online Advanced Diploma in Transport and Logistics

Online dual vocational training:

In accordance with Organic Law 3/2022, a number of significant changes will be introduced to the vocational training system in Spain from the 2024–25 academic year onwards 

• Virtual DUAL Methodology: Students undertaking distance-learning vocational training will complete their work placements in a single 500-hour period during the second year. They will be eligible to undertake these placements once they have passed 30 per cent of the vocational modules and received a favourable assessment from the teaching staff.

_{^{This transition to the new vocational training regulations, known as ‘Dual’ (a standardised framework for the whole country, except for the order of modules and the teaching load set by each Autonomous Community) affects all first-year courses in any of their formats (face-to-face or online), except for the Higher Vocational Training Course in Dietetics, which remains under the LOGSE training plan, predating the current LOE*}}

The Work-Based Training (FFE) will enable you to apply the knowledge acquired during the course in real professional settings within the transport and logistics sector. This experience offers an opportunity to gain first-hand insight into how logistics operations, transport management, procurement and distribution work within companies.
