- During the first half of 2026, the EDUCA EDTECH Group organised a range of events to support students, graduates and professionals in various career-related decisions: discovering opportunities, reviewing their profiles, learning how to present themselves, understanding recruitment processes, and hearing from those already navigating the job market.
Looking for a job rarely begins by clicking “submit application”. It starts earlier: when a person recognises what they are capable of, learns how to explain it, understands how they will be assessed, and discovers what they need to keep improving.
With that in mind, EDUCA Talent Day, EDUCA Check Week, EDUCA Career Workshop, EDUCA Selection Process, EDUCA Mentorship y EDUCA Faculty Life have been organised to take participants through the various stages of employability. Rather than simply a series of sessions, the programme reflects a way of linking training, guidance and the realities of the workplace.
From talent to a better-prepared candidacy
The tour began with EDUCA Talent Day, an event focused on professional development and connecting with the labour market. The event brought together around 800 people registered and racked up hundreds of views in a single day.
Then came EDUCA Check Week. Over the course of several days, students and graduates were able to refine their CVs and profiles, receive personalised guidance, learn about active job-search strategies and access free resources.
The stock closed with more than 600 registered participants from 47 countries and 60 individual mentoring sessions scheduled. “The team’s work has been outstanding; they have shown that Employment and Work Placements is a real driving force for our community and for our company,” said Ángel Encinar, Chief Student Experience Officer at EDUCA EDTECH Group.
Learning to describe what you can already do
Having skills doesn’t always mean knowing how to communicate them. EDUCA Career Workshop It was created to bridge the gap between a person’s experience and the way in which they present it to the labour market.
With 1,200 registrations and over 500 downloads Drawing on the resources provided, the session covered everything from defining professional value to applying it to CVs, LinkedIn, portfolios and digital presence. The session was aimed at those looking for their first job or an internship, but also at professionals wishing to develop their skills, change career or build a personal brand.
EDUCA Selection Process took the next step: looking at the recruitment process from the inside. The event explained what companies are looking for, what is assessed in interviews, technical tests and psychometric tests, and how to prepare before, during and after submitting an application.
Understanding a recruitment process does not guarantee a “yes”, but it does mean you are not groping in the dark. Knowing what is being assessed helps you to interpret each stage, respond more thoughtfully and build a competitive profile without turning it into a caricature.
Careers don’t follow a straight line
EDUCA Mentorship shifted the conversation from tools to experiences. Álvaro Serrano, director of Inteligenia; Alejandro Santiago, editorial director at Nazarí; Beatriz Torres, director of Clínica Cámara; Armando Benítez, director of engineering at Apogea; and Miguel Ángel Fernández, director of Academia FG, shared insights drawn from the fields of technology, engineering, healthcare, education and publishing.
The diversity of their career paths reinforced one idea: Career development no longer follows a single path. It is also built on changes of direction, continuous learning and the ability to recognise when a skill needs updating.
The term ended with EDUCA Faculty Life, an event that brought students into closer contact with the people behind their education. Lecturers from the departments of Business, Education, Health, IT, Science and Engineering, Art and Architecture, and Jobs & Professions spoke about their chosen careers, online teaching, the skills required in the workplace, and the decisions that have shaped their careers.
“This event enables students to get to know the people who support them throughout their studies better and to understand how their professional experience is brought into the classroom,” explain representatives from EDUCA EDTECH Group.
The most-watched sessions covered advice on career development, interests beyond the classroom, relationships with pupils, and the reasons that lead professionals to choose a career in teaching. Understanding a sector also means getting to know the people who work in it.
Employability is also accompanied by
The six events have formed a sequence: discovering talent, reviewing the tools, learning how to present one’s profile, understanding the selection process, listening to professionals and getting to know the teaching team better.
EDUCA EDTECH Group is thus strengthening a way of linking training and employment which does not end with the award of a qualification. Employability is built up through every learning decision, but also in the spaces where a person can ask questions, reflect on their experience and seek guidance.
Following this first half of the year, the challenge is to keep that path open. Because a career opportunity can begin with an application, but also with a conversation that helps you see your own career path in a different light.
