MADRID, June 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- VASS, a leading global digital solutions company launches VASS University, a knowledge centre for upskilling talent in digital and specialized technical capabilities. The centre aims to meet the growing demand for talent with strong digital skills.

The centre, open to talent from across the world, draws from the extensive experience and knowledge of VASS' own network of experts and professionals based in 26 countries and four different continents.

Participants will have access to an online campus with programs, tools, and other useful resources. The courses are developed aiming to help companies and individuals to upskill, reskill, and meet the demands of the fast-changing business landscape.

"We hope to create an accelerator for knowledge-sharing and honing of digital skills which also supports sustainable growth and development," says Antonio Rueda, Director of VASS University.

VASS University's programs are built around five key areas: IT Training, focused on technical and technological skills; IT Certifications, to be delivered in collaboration with leading technology manufacturers; training in Agile Methodologies for project management; soft skills focused on team management; and languages.
