Corporate programmes are tailored solutions for developing the professionals employed by organisations. They are designed to take into account the specific characteristics of each organisation and are aligned with and support corporate strategies.
We design learning activities and programmes, select the best instructors, and manage courses and training paths that develop participants’ technical competences, managerial skills, and ability to innovate.
The professionals who complete our programmes and achieve the required competences obtain a degree from the UPC.
All corporate programmes are designed based on the criteria and methodologies on quality assurance defined for the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).
Validation and accreditation of professional competences (VAPC) is a system that makes it possible to accredit the experience and knowledge professionals have gained over their careers.
In the first stage of this process, the competences a professional has developed in his/her area of work are identified and a certificate of acquired competences is issued. This stage is carried out based on a process the University has established for analysing, assessing and evaluating competences.
In the second stage, candidates may seek to obtain a postgraduate certificate. The first step is to compare the competences acquired and certified with those students acquire in a UPC School postgraduate programme. This comparison identifies the competences that the candidate needs to acquire through complementary training. Once this training has been successfully completed, the professional obtains a master’s, postgraduate or lifelong learning diploma from the UPC.
We can design and implement comprehensive talent retention and development plans for organisations. Projects of this kind advance and develop training, motivation, and the alignment of an organisation’s knowledge with its strategies.
At the UPC School we analyse each client’s needs and provide the most appropriate corporate development solutions. We prepare analyses to diagnose personnel training needs, advise clients on the development of training plans, and provide the most suitable methodological solutions in each case.
At the UPC School we design, implement and manage training plans that cover large populations and broad geographical areas. Plans are directed towards large groups of people linked to companies and institutions.
We handle all aspects of the training process, including analysis of the specific training needs of the group concerned, monitoring the learning activity, and subsequent evaluation of project outcomes.
The involvement of the Corporate Solutions team in major training projects covers the following stages:
At the UPC School we make the most of new technologies. Our team creates e-learning and blended learning projects and activities designed to facilitate online learning and the exchange of knowledge.
We adapt methodologies to each training activity and put them at the service of the groups we train and the objectives pursued.
We offer this service in two forms:
We create virtual classrooms where all students are connected at the same time and interact with the instructor within a system that simulates a face-to-face class. Students interact, communicate and do group work while the instructor checks and evaluates exercises in real time.
We design virtual campuses for asynchronous training, where participants learn, participate and communicate with each other but don’t need to be connected at the same time.
Our role is to provide a comprehensive service that includes the production of training materials, preparation, the teaching-learning process, and evaluation:
We facilitate the recruitment of new talent by organisations. The goal is to prepare professionals to take up positions by providing them with training based on the client organisation’s specific needs, and to align this preparation with the company’s strategies and the challenges it faces. Highly specialised programmes combine the acquisition of knowledge and skills with work placements.
The service comprises three stages:
Analysis of an organisation’s needs, definition of job profiles, and selection of candidates.
Design and implementation of initial and strategic training for the organisation. Training is based on specific needs and oriented towards the hiring of candidates.
Once candidates have successfully completed their training, they receive a degree from the UPC training programme and are hired by the organisation.
