- A strategic partnership aimed at direct job placement
The alliance between EIG Education and OPPLUS to launch a unique Dual Vocational Training project has been announced today. This initiative is designed to meet the local business sector’s needs and enforce direct job placement opportunities for students.
The event, held at the OPPLUS Campus facilities in Málaga TechPark, highlighted the importance of this collaboration. The program will train students in specialized courses tailored to OPPLUS systems and processes, and the BPO solutions sector. Students will receive academic training at the EIG Education campus and participate in internships at the OPPLUS facilities under the guidance of its staff. To ensure the model’s success, students must go through an admission process led by OPPLUS itself.
This project represents an innovative approach to Dual Vocational Training in Málaga. Developed through the alliance between EIG Education and OPPLUS, it aims to train future professionals with high qualifications and perfectly aligned with the specific needs of the local industry.
The initiative aims to achieve several key objectives:
- Ensure the professional development of local talent through collaborative efforts.
- Providing the BPO sector with professionals trained in its culture, systems, and processes.
- Creating direct job opportunities for most program students.
- Establishing a pioneering Dual Vocational Training model in Málaga, adaptable to the needs of the local business sector.
This alliance is a crucial step toward strengthening the competitiveness of Málaga by promoting innovatively the collaboration between educational institutions and businesses with training managed directly by the company.
Statements:
- Pablo Benavides, CEO of OPPLUS: “We believe education is the key to achieving a fairer society. It is the driving force behind opportunity development, and with this project, we want to make those opportunities accessible to all.”
- Carlos Castilla, CEO of EIG Education: “With this training project, we are reaching the pinnacle of what dual training is meant to be. The synergy between the company and the educational institution is absolute.”
- David Andrés, Director of People at OPPLUS: “When the candidate you are going to hire has been training with you for two years, the learning curve for that job disappears—something only possible with a project like this.”
- Fernando Martín, Marketing Director of EIG Education and its Málaga Campus: “We are a school of partnerships that bring out the best in each participant. We had already done this with ESIC and marketing education, and today we have it with OPPLUS and its commitment to employability.”
This collaboration is built around an exclusive “boutique” training model, which moves away from mass training to focus on specific training cycles demanded by BPO sector companies. Selected students will receive a complete education that combines academic training at EIG Education with professional internships supervised by the OPPLUS team.
The program focuses on three specific cycles: Administration and Finance, International Trade, and Web Development. Its main objective is to ensure job placement for most students, addressing the current demands of the industry.
This project positions Málaga as a benchmark in business education collaboration, fostering the economic and social development of the city.
