The Digitalent Group has made a key acquisition by adding PROGRESA Formación, a pioneering vocational training center in Valencia, to its structure. This move aims to position DIGITECH, the group’s division focused on vocational training, as the leading entity in the technological education sector in Spain.
DIGITALENT is recognized in the educational realm for including renowned institutions such as ISDI, ISDE, IEBS, ESERP, and DIGITECH, and continues to invest in quality education in sectors with high employability. The recent opening of new vocational training centers in Madrid, Barcelona, and Málaga underscores the trend toward technical education that aligns with the future labor market’s needs.
The integration of PROGRESA will enable DIGITECH to train over 2,000 students annually across various official certifications in areas of growing demand, such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, web development, digital marketing, and video games. This growth not only strengthens DIGITECH’s position in the market but also establishes it as a driving force for change in the educational sector.
Javier Rodríguez Zapatero, former president of Google and current president of DIGITALENT, emphasized the importance of this acquisition for transforming technological vocational education in Spain. According to him, PROGRESA represents a significant advancement in their commitment to digital talent, contributing to the creation of a more innovative educational ecosystem connected to market demands.
Oscar Casanova, director of PROGRESA FORMACIÓN, also expressed his enthusiasm for this partnership, stating that collaboration with DIGITECH will enhance their educational offerings and provide new job opportunities for their students, allowing them to adapt and grow in a constantly evolving work environment.
With the goal of positioning itself as the most influential Higher Education group in Spain for the digital era, DIGITALENT has trained over 25,000 students in recent years, highlighting its focus on employability, innovation, and the development of advanced digital skills.
