It is not uncommon to hear someone claim that they learned more at work than at university. It is clear, experience makes perfect and there is no better university than that of life. Even so, the number of those enrolled in master's studies in Spain continues to increase each year due to the demands of a hypercompetitive labor market that is increasingly marked by changes and new technologies. Faced with this dichotomy, maintaining employability and relevance in the market becomes a challenge for any professional. Can business schools extract the realities of professional life and companies and place them at the forefront in the classroom? Is higher education focused on reality possible? EAE Business School Barcelona, an international institution that is part of Planeta Formación y Universidades, has renewed its entire training experience proposal to take higher education in this direction.
EAE Barcelona works as a bridge between the world of work and students, offering opportunities to learn from professionals from internationally recognized companies through masterclasses that are part of the academic program. Thus, during the master's degree students can see up close the reality of the professional market. The hands-on methodology and the exploration of real company cases serve to put the knowledge learned into practice and find tangible solutions to current business situations and needs. To understand the reality of the business, learning has to go beyond the classroom. That is why EAE Barcelona organizes different visits to multinational companies, where professionals with extensive experience share knowledge and the realities of the environment. Thus, it is possible to experience the day-to-day life of the business world, learn about the work environment and discover the challenges and responsibilities faced when completing the master's degree.
The institution collaborates with large companies such as Amazon, Bayer, Seat, Zurich, NTT Data and FC Barcelona in which, with the help of teachers, it is possible to witness practical examples of what was worked on in the classroom. In the competitive labor market, EAE Barcelona provides master's training and prepares students to obtain valuable professional certifications, thus boosting their employability.
All master's programs include the preparation and content to successfully pass the exams for some international professional certifications. Some of the certifications that the master's programs include are Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals, Microsoft Certified: Power BI Data Analyst Associate and Project Management Professional (PMP), among others. Thus, students can acquire a globally recognized certification, in addition to the double master's degree. Preparation for these certifications adds additional and differential value to the professional profile of each candidate.
In the professional field, you have to take advantage of every opportunity that arises to differentiate yourself and grow. EAE Barcelona explores this premise by offering the possibility of specializing in areas other than those of the master's degrees through its Specialization Labs. The Labs are immersive and practical learning programs that equip students with new relevant and in-demand skills. Labs like Artificial Intelligence
