Online Advanced Diploma in Administration and Finance

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 teaching staff for the distance-learning Higher Technical Diploma in Administration and Finance comprises practising professionals and industry specialists who bring their real-world experience in accounting, financial management, human resources, logistics and business administration into the classroom. This course is tailored to the skills currently sought after by businesses.

• Carlos Martín Sanz: Head of Communications and Marketing at Tiendas Castill; lecturer in HR and CSR, business simulation and office automation in administration and finance.
• Rafael Jaén: Expert in business administration and management, lecturer at several universities and lecturer in Financial Management.
• Estefanía González Conde: Expert in marketing policy, public relations and events. Lecturer in marketing and market research.
